This video tutorial will teach you the French way to make traditional French toast called in "Pain perdu" ". Pain perdu ( french toast) literally means "lost bread". It dates back to more frugal times where every morsel of food was used/re-used. Stale or left over bread cuts (a precious commodity a few hundred years ago) were refashioned into a delicious treat. The big difference between the French way of making "French toast" is the separation of key ingredients (milk, eggs and sugar). Whereas newer recipe tends to mixes everything together with additional flavors added like vanilla and cinnamon. My promise to you is this traditional french toast method will yield a crispier, crunchier taste and texture. Ingredients: 1 French style baguette (cut in slices) 300 ml of full cream milk 2 whole eggs (ideally free range/organic) 50 grams or more of plain butter (to cook the bread slices) 50 grams or more of granulated white sugar (add as much as you want) 2 pinches of salt (one for the milk and oe for the beaten eggs)
