FAQ
French toast is a sweet breakfast dish made with sliced bread soaked in a simple custard mixture that's pan-fried.
Nope. It's a North American invention. The popular story is that Joseph French created the dish in 1724. He intended to advertise it as French's toast, but his grammar was so terrible, he didn't add the apostrophe.
It can be tempting to soak your bread for a long period of time to get more of that eggy goodness, but if you do, the bread will simply get soggy and break apart.
