So here’s your cheat sheet for life. Thin bread: 20 seconds per side. Thick bread: 45 seconds to 1 minute.
Listen to your bread. It will tell you. It will sigh and say, “I’m ready for butter.”
Perfect French toast is a two-minute miracle. Get the soak right, and you are a breakfast god. Get it wrong, and you’re just a sad person eating a pancake-shaped regret.
Go forth. Soak wisely. Eat gloriously.
