November 28 French Toast Day

Today day is November 28 French Toast Day observed every year. French toast “Eggy bread, omelet bread or gypsy toast” is the perfect way to start day.
The origin of French toast is unknown, but recipes date back to the sixteenth century in Europe. Prior to the Hundred Years War, French toast was known in England as "poor knight's pudding" because it was a simple and inexpensive dish that a knight with no money could afford. In France, it was called "pan perdu" or lost bread, because it was a way of using lost or stale bread.

To cook French toast, crack an egg in a medium bowl. Add 1/4 cup milk, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and 1/2 tsp vanilla extract. Mix together. Heart a pan with 1 tsp butter on medium heat. Dip both side of a slice of bread in mixture. Chefs recommend using stale bread for cooking French toast because it soaks up more egg mixture without falling apart. Fry on both sides until brown.
