Here is the secret to perfect French toast:
Blender
That’s it.
Eggs, cream, bread (I use a store-bought Challah), and powder sugar for dusting.
The secret is to mix the egg and cream in the blender (or with a stick blender) to liquify the mix and incorporate air.
That way it soaks into the bread and when it cooks, puffs up.
Fry on low-medium heat and done.
Cinnamon, cardamon and 5-spice powder, and a little vanilla.
.
And yes, stick blender are awesome!
You _bought_ a challah?!?!? For shame! 8>)
As an egg bread, it does make a great French toast base.
I remember when our lads were young, sometimes we would do the motzi, then slice the challah to make French toast for dinner.
