Calling all chefs [eggy bread]

Topics

charlisock

I've looked around the interweb and found some interesting recipes for eggy bread. Unfortunately they include ingredients that I don't have... and do I actually need them?

I mean... I know you need eggs and I know you need bread

But what's this with salt and pepper or double cream?!

Any help will be appreciated

Do you realise the trouble you might be causing with those eggs?

Fork eggs into one yellow colour, dip in bread, whack in pan, fry until substantial, put on plate, douse in sugar and lemon, eat.

That's the only way I've ever know. I don't known what this double cream nonsense is

Use milk,eggs and black pepper (I hate salt so never use it) and sometimes I put a splash of wostershire sauce in it.

Break eggs(I do two eggs for 4 slices of bread) and beat in a cup.
Add milk (I do it by eye so am hopeless at giving measurements).
Pepper and Woster sauce(3-4 splashes)
Put into a bowl dip bread in it put on hot clean hot pan. Turn eat. Da daa

My eggs have always responded well to salty, creamy mixtures.

I have a recipe somewhere, where you put cooked sausages between the bread, dip in egg and fry

I've never used milk in them before, this is an interesting idea.

Hmm, maybe that's the one I do then with the sugar and lemon.

I still do put it on the eggs though. I fry the bread soaked in the egg and then put the sugar and lemon on. And if there's any excess egg I put that in after so it's a weird...flat egg thing and that gets a coating too. It's lovely!

There's no difference between eggy bread & French toast. When I lived in the north west it was known as French toast and when I lived in the south east it was known as eggy bread, so I assume it's a regional or a class thing.

PS Charli, I don't usually bother with the milk but if you do only use a splash or it'll make the bread a bit soggy. I always use black pepper and salt though.

Not as far as I know. I've always used egg, milk, pinch of salt.
Dunk bread in mixture, fry, eat. Yummy!
It's a savoury dish, not a sweet!

You can have it as sweet or savoury, just like pancakes. Some people have it with cinnamon and sugar, I like it with gruyere cheese melted on top.
