Toast (1 Viewer)

[Alan Remorse]

so, in an attempt to prove liadain wrong (as with everything else i do), i pose the question:

Is it better to have toast that is only slightly browned, so that you get the melty butter but no risk of horrible blackness? Or is it better to have toast that is well browned, nay black almost, so as to risk getting cancer from the huge amounts of carbon you're pumping into your system?

hmmm?

Golden Brown, texture like sun.

no fucking mention of black burnt bread, speaks for itself really.

 

[damien]

slightly browned all the way.

 

[ostrichsyndrome]

toasted on one side only, on the verge of browning with just a little butter

You posit a misleading scenario, sir. Allow me to pose a question that is more representative of the facts.

Is it better to have toast that has not browned at all -- that is, in fact, only warm bread and not accurately represented by the signifier "toast" -- or to have toast that is a warm brown shade, with no blackness?



this was three years ago, by the way

My fear of the black death leads to me to accept "warm bread" at times when i was really after that golden brown...texture like sun...!ninjaaaa

a warm brown shade is best in my opinion . but it must have butter and lashings of marmite on it or I will refuse to consume it .

4 slices of lightly browned on one side toast; plenty of butter; 1 tin Heinz beans

A feast fit for a king.

 

[One of us]

Brown all over, deepening to a dangerous ochre at the crust. But it's not the colour that matters so much as the temperature and texture. It's got to be hot enough to melt butter and make cheese a little excited. And it's got to be crisp enough to soak the butter up and stay bone dry. You can't see it as altered bread; it's got to feel like you've just invented a completely different kind of food.

The difference between bread and toast should be like the difference between Clark Kent and Superman.

 

[Super Dexta]

And what Alan produced from the toaster was definitely still Clark Kent.

 

[Lili Marlene]

my friend calls it ghost toast.

(eh, not superman obviously)

 

[spiritualtramp]

bread toasted for about 30 seconds can be nice . but only if you then rub some garlic on it , then rub a squashy tomato into it and drizzle loads of olive oil over it . most yummy .

You have no idea how many times my drunken fingers ha d to retype this.

 

[Cormcolash]

I agree with Liadain on all things.

 

[Rogue]

Ah jaysus!

I posted a whole other post about having just drunkenly made french toast (a mere twenty minutes ago!) but obviously drunkenly failed to post it.

I'm going to bed.

The french toast was spectacular.

I can see my hangover beckoning...

Wrestling sucks.

 

[Cormcolash]

Yeah I always thought it was shite. I dunno why other people like it.

 

[Lili Marlene]

i turned on the tv yesterday and there was a bunch of wrestlers playing musical chairs in the ring instead of fighting.

 

[pete]

well i missed that particular spectacle myself, but as long as they wound up skulling each other with the chairs then I see no particular problem.

Marmite + Marmalade = not the same thing
