So many good varied selections on this thread. I’ve realised since moving out of my parents with my partner I have eaten much less toast and less toast meals, we
might need a new thread about the correct colour of toast as well! my diet is probably much better now! Beans on toast is banned here
thankfully with a baby who is growing up maybe I have an excuse to make it for myself as well!
So my most comfortable satisfying favourite is very simple. Just some poached eggs, salt and pepper on hot buttered white toasty!
My absolute favourite is a bread pizza as per secondary school cooking but improved with good homemade slightly thick cut bread! So toast one side well, the otherwise only a little. Spread ketchup on the lighter side to cover as it soaked in a little, the top with a good covering of grated mature cheddar and finally a sprinkling oregano! My wife does a more complex alternative from Poland called a zapiekanka but I don’t regard this as toast as it is all on a big long half baguette.
As for toast and butter my favourite way takes time. I like the toast to be crispy with the butter sat on the surface more. So you have to toast your bread well but not burnt and then let it go cool. It seems weird but tastes great but most of the time with toast I am generally after a warmer snack!
