Francis Ray Hot Buttery Sweet Milk Toast Recipes

Steps:

• Please read all the way through first:.
• The first step is to have a serving bowl that will contain the majority of the 1 3/4th cup of milk and only be approximately 3/4th full or close to that quantity (because there needs to be room later to also hold the toasted bread)/ Consequently, I usually pour enough milk into my serving bowl to fill it 3/4th full and use that amount of milk to boil.
• Then pour that amount of milk into a small pan and place on stove and turn heat to high at first and adjust as you go but we need milk to boil.
• Add 1 TSP of butter into the stove pan of milk immediately.
• Add 1/4 TSP of salt to the stove pan of milk and stir.
• Add 2 TBSP of sugar, stir until dissolved.
• Have the last TBSP available for preference at end.
• You should understand that the milk will scorch if you don't stir when it gets close to boiling.
• Toast the three slices of white bread to the darker setting without burning.
• If toast becomes burnt, replace and try again/ It's very important to get this part exactly right, the toast must be darker than regular breakfast toast but never burnt-- but very close/ It must still look and taste good at this finished point/ If you hate darker toast then don't toast it this dark but as far as you can take it, is best.
• Add another 1 TSP of butter to your not yet boiling milk while continuing to stir slowly/ (you can add another one if you like, or even a part of it, I do).
• Butter the toasted bread lightly but into all area's of the darkened but not burnt toast/ If you like pepper, add just a small touch on each slice or leave off.
• Lightly salt the buttered toast on the buttered side into all area's of the toast & this is necessary.
• Bring milk to a boil where it will rise in the pan and require your blowing it down/ This is normal and will happen at a flash point, be ready to take milk off of heat/ Then pour into your serving bowl where you will still have about 1/4th of it still free or unfilled/ Taste to test if more sugar is needed.
• Pull apart your toast by hand and drop 'gently' into the top of your served hot milk without forcing it down to much.
• What your striving for is an even mixture of milk and toast/ You don't want to much toast that it dries up the hot milk and you do want a bit more milk than toast.
• Lastly, you must again lightly salt your bowl of hot milk and toast.
• It takes less than a 40 seconds to cool down but do eat while hot/ You should be tasting a hot buttery sweet milk of nicely salted bread that draws you back each time/ Adjust salt, sugar and butter to taste.
• Again, the boiling milk will froth and rise quickly, be ready and have a hot pan holder ready to pick up pan and blow down the rising froth, it means, it's ready.

Steps:

• Preheat the griddle to medium.
• Whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, the cheese, the nutmeg and salt and pepper, to taste, in a shallow dish.
• In a medium bowl add the pork, sage, onion, garlic, fennel, cloves, lots of black pepper and salt, to taste, and mix to combine. Divide the mixture into 4 pieces and form each piece into 2 small patties, about 2 1/2-inches wide. Heat the extra-virgin olive oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Turn off the heat and keep warm in the pan.
• Wipe the hot griddle with butter nested in a paper towel. Soak the bread, a few slices at a time, in the milk mixture, shaking off the excess. Add the bread to the griddle and cook until toasted, crispy and golden, about 3 minutes on each side. Cook in batches, if necessary.
• While the bread toasts, combine the strawberries, basil and sugar in a medium bowl.
• Halve the toast from corner to corner. Serve the toast on individual plates layered with sausage patties, a liberal drizzle of honey and the berries with basil.

Steps:

• Put all of the ingredients for your chutney in a medium pot and bring liquid to a boil. Reduce heat a bit and let the chutney cook down for 10 minutes. Remove gingerroot before serving.
• Begin to assemble an assembly line leading to your pan. Place a pile of bread next to a shallow dish or disposable pie tin containing the eggs, beaten with milk, sugar, and nutmeg. Nestle a piece of cold butter in a folded paper towel and keep on hand to wipe and grease your skillet. Pile apples, cheese, and turkey on the cutting board to finish your assembly line.
• Preheat nonstick griddle or large skillet over moderate heat.
• To make sandwiches, coat pan with butter, dip 4 pieces of bread on both sides in the egg, and place in the pan. Cook 2 minutes and turn 2 slices over. Top the 2 slices you turned with thin layers of cheese, apple, turkey and another slice of cheese. Top sandwich filling with the other 2 slices of bread, keeping the uncooked side up; you are just sliding these pieces over from pan to top of sandwich. Now flip the entire sandwich over to cook the opposite side of the sandwich. Gently press down on the sandwich as it grills the last minute or two. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.
• Cut sandwiches on a diagonal and serve with small buttercups or ramekins of warm fruit chutney for topping.

Steps:

• Cut bread into halves and set aside.
• Crack eggs into a bowl and to them, add sugar, milk, vanilla essence and whisk.
• Heat vegetable oil and butter in a skillet on low heat. Once the butter is melted, dip bread slices in egg mixture and toast in the skillet until golden-brown.
• Serve with whipped cream, powdered sugar, and maple syrup.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl and add the chocolate milk to it.
• Beat until well mixed.
• Pour this into a pie plate.
• Put half the butter or margarine (1 tbsp.) in a skillet and heat over medium-high heat.
• Dip one slice of the bread into the egg mixture and turn the bread over to coat the other side.
• Place the coated bread in the skillet and repeat with antoher slice.
• Cook until the bottoms are browned and then turn the slices with a spatula and cook until the other side is browned; remove to a serving plate.
• Put the remaining butter or margarine in and repeat the cooking process.
• Sprinkle with powdered sugar and top with cherry pie filling or syrup if you like. (I like whipped cream)!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°F.
• Whisk together buttermilk, eggs, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Pour into a large 4-sided sheet pan, then add bread in 1 layer and soak, turning occasionally, until bread has absorbed all liquid but is not falling apart, about 20 minutes.
• Heat 1 1/2 tablespoon butter in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until foam subsides. Transfer 4 bread slices with a slotted spatula to skillet and cook, turning once, until slightly puffed and golden brown, about 3 minutes total. Transfer to a large shallow baking pan and keep warm in oven. Cook remaining bread in 2 batches, adding 1 1/2 tablespoon butter between batches.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Whisk milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and allspice together in a large bowl. Dip each slice of bread into egg mixture to coat.
• Place coated bread into skillet and cook until golden brown on 1 side, about 1 minute. Flip and continue cooking until second side is golden, about 1 minute more. Remove to a plate and repeat with remaining bread slices.
• Sift confectioners' sugar over top of the French toast, slice diagonally, and serve.
