They used the eggy bread to layer combinations of ham with a cheesey bechamel. Then there was a honey mustard drizzle over the top. Outrageous stuff.torihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15511490633610442390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3863241420351354589.post-64338719776013115582011-05-09T11:30:37.726-04:002011-05-09T11:30:37.726-04:00stale bread, butter, and booze--things most likely...stale bread, butter, and booze--things most likely in nearly every household. i've never had honey in my hair, but i've battled maple syrup multiple times. :)gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02368850949339758604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3863241420351354589.post-50845808221512214342011-05-08T17:10:52.324-04:002011-05-08T17:10:52.324-04:00This is some amped up French toast!

Pain perdu sounds far more decadent than French toast, doesn't it? <br /><br />Though if you'll forgive me a French language geek moment, "pain perdu" doesn't quite translate as "lost bread." The bread itself isn't lost - it's the chance to consume it as-is that's escaped. It's a similar usage to "perdu" as in Proust's "A la Recherche de Temps Perdu."adelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13540746999282967999noreply@blogger.com
