Him: The most important part...the bread. Or as we call it in france...
Me: Le Pain?
Him: Ze Bread
Me: !!!!!
Ikr
Oui, when we go to ze boulangerie we say always "Donnez-moi du Ze bread, please" 🤓
AAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA I just scrolled down and that part came up while I was reading this HAAHAHAHAHA
Caruso James u say please not’ silvousplait’
Bruh that's just my life; le pain.
I wasn't gonna subscribe until I saw you use a whisk and a drill together. The future is here and you are it's harbinger
He didn't attach a whisk to a drill lol it's a common kitchen tool. Handheld electric mixer as opposed to the larger ones that sit on the counter with a big bowl
I saw!! I felt like a fool for not thinking of this ingenious idea. I was whisking egg whites yesterday and the electric whisk stopped working. I wish I watched this video yesterday, it would've saved my wrist... Subscribed to the tribe!
Zachary Adler No. That's a drill.
This is definitely a drill. He has used it before in his videos.
He attached a drill to a meat grinder as well, but that didn't work. Check out his french onion soup video.
I made the guilty version and put on top some banana and some homemade salted caramel sauce. It was divine but I'm so bloated and feel like I've eaten my daily calorie intake before midday.
i made three, stacked on top, with jam in between, and I couldn't even eat half. Holy fucking shit, it is an unbelievable amount of calories!!
You probably have
😂
I immediately went to the kitchen as soon as I watched this video and made the best French toast I've ever made. To be fair, it was the very first time I've ever made French toast, but it was fantastic nonetheless. Thanks Alex!
it sticks because of the sugar in the banana. A non-stick pan is de rigeur for this variant.
Thanks for the tip. I will try this.
Andre Cornut ss xfxCfsvcbcvxdTV NYC TV m videos game
Susannah Ayres-Thomas I dont think so, it might be the maple syrup because I made the recipe but I didn't put maple syrup, i did with brown sugar and it didn't stick to the pan.
Fernanda Dias How much brown sugar did you use?
"Because of the combination of sugars and natural, uncooked starches I think."
Cooked or not, all starches are natural. Fuck off.
In The Netherlands we use brown sugar as a topping and leave out the refined sugar.
We also call French Toast "little tumble bitches" (wentelteefjes).
Firefox is red, Explorer is blue. Google+ sucks and Chrome does too. i like this 😂
In Germany we call them "poor Knights" (arme Ritter)
Pie Pe in Swedish we called the the poor knight too!!! Now I know where we got that from
I've never heard of savoury Arme Ritter.. that's interesting tho I'd call that something like Brotauflauf or Brotpudding or something similar and we'd make it in the oven not in a pan..might be different for different parts of Germany
Firefox is red, Explorer is blue. Google+ sucks and Chrome does too. Heel heel heel mooi vertaald.
Indulgent french toast will always be there for you. Indulgent french toast will always love you.
French Toast is my favorite breakfast. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. So my joy is greatest when I get to have French Toast for breakfast. It is the first recipe that I learned. A neighbor taught me when I was 7 years old. That was a long time ago. Thank you!
great job alex dude! fair play on the 100k great work!
Pleasure ! my irish Lovely wild vegan brothers !!!
congratulations
@@FrenchGuyCooking you need to use a non stick frying pan so it doesn’t stick
Try adding a large spoonful of tapioca starch (or tapioca flour) into the vegan version. I make something similar and it help create a better crust, and more so gives it more of a custard-like texture! :)
Thanks!
Alex: "And now for the most important part:"
Me: "The bread"
Alex: "The bread, or as we call it in France:"
Me: "Le pai-"
Alex: "Ze bread"
xD
5:23 “Your hungover, she breaks up with you, then you snap your toe on the side of the bed” 😂
Last part clearly the worst that could happen
Congratulations Alex!!! love your studio, your french toasts and your hairstyle!!
Felicitas Pizarro hey
Ughhhh I stubbed my toe... I get the butter toast 😏😏
I made this with some slight variations for my little nephew and I and he LOVED it. Thank you!
You are the first french youtuber who speaks english with a big french accent this confidently. You speak english well yet you don't have the accent. On te comprend quand même donc c'est le principal, merci pour cette vidéo
First..you are one of my favorite UA-cam cooks. Cooking at home is something that started about a year ago and it has really changed my life. I used to eat out pretty much every meal. Anyway...one of my favorite series you have done is Pizza (there is a point, stick with it). At one point you talk about yeast, but in the US the only option I can find is dry yeast. I bought the book Josey Baker Bread (which is great and he has many videos as well) and he gets into a sour dough starter that I have made from scratch. DUDE! I **MADE** yeast! So wonder if I can use that in the pizza dough? Also, the French are known for bread. I visited France many years ago and someone told me that (because of the French Revolution) the law was you could only sell bread in France on the day it is made. Is that true? Still true? I heard the reason was French people are less likely to revolt if they have food in their stomachs. Maybe making croissants is beyond a quick UA-cam video recipe, but what about French baguettes? Or other types of French bread? That was my favorite! Fresh French baguette with jam and coffee. Shit! I may move to France soon. So good. After seeing this, really think something on making bread would be great. Since making French Toast really requires uncut bread, which you don't find in the US. Thanks, Alex!
Love your comment bro. So much wild love in there :) I made a video on how to make French Rustic Bread there : ua-cam.com/video/1r6jV-MaQuc/v-deo.html
Also, it's true that Bakeries here only sell freshly baked bread. But it's like everywhere some of them are awesome, some of them just reheat frozen sh*t. So stocked you made your sourdough starter, seems lie you're hooked ! I love that. Keep it up
Jason Bunnell you can easily find uncut bread in the US. It's at the bakery section of the grocery store. If they don't have any that day you can just ask them not to cut one the next day or go early when it's all stocked.
Why would a baker sell old bread? What you said happens in Italy too
What is better for a business? Sell old product for a discount and make a little money or throw all that product (bread) out and lose all that product and profit.
fresh bread never gets old here, if you enter a bakery almost at closing time you'd notice that 99% of the bread is gone
Salut! Love your humor Alex, and the accent. :) French toasts are one of my favorite breakfasts and it's the first one I learned how to cook. I usually do the lighter version of it, but I add coconut to the mix, so it's more crispy. And I my favorite topping is peanut butter and cooked bananas. Thanks, I'm hungry right now haha
Just made the first one. The wife loved it. Thanks
Just came back from my once in a lifetime trip from Europe and had pain perdu in Paris. Best thing I have ever eaten! Thanks for the recipe!
vegan banana french toast, great idea. i usually do the first version, but now i’m going to try all three.
Topings? Honeycomb with a mint leaf on top, and sprinkle some crushed hazelnuts. Then add a bit of grated dark chocolate. Supremely luxurious!
Creative yet perfect!
Thank you for this lesson! Seriously, produced the best french toast I have ever had. My husband and I were in heaven eating this.
Three years of hard work and you're up to a million subs! Amazing Alex. Take care.
he can cook, he has a beautiful accent, charming....he's so cute! 😍😍😍
#blushing
ikr
yeah french accent sounds sweet
He's such a sweet boy. Plz be my chef daddy
Guilty version all the way 👌👍Congratulations for the 100k subs!👏👏👏👏👏🎉🎉🎉🎊
outrageous. so professional. and the two food preps I've seen you demonstrate were pretty well done. i'm on board for more.
Humor, passion, and fabulous cooking! I’m so happy to have found your channel! In South Louisiana, I grew up with my grandma making “lost bread” for me before school. Soooooo delicious.
I love your accent it's amazing
"The bread. Or, as we call it in France, ze brrred" :D so glad I found this channel
I cooked following this recipe and the result was the best french toast I've ever eaten. Thank you!
I love your creative description of a good reason to make the guilty version of French toast.
Here in Brasil (and in Portugal) we call this RABANADA, and it's very popular as a dessert for Christmas dinner. There are some differences in how it is done. For example, we don't mix the milk and the eggs toghether, and we fry those in a lot of oil, just like french fries. The result is more like a pudding. ;)
BRAZIOU ! Interesting stuff
Marcio Castro And at the end of the process, we cover them with a layer of cinnamon powder & sugar mixed together. The best desert ever 💕 Alex you should try doing this anytime! you'll love it
É, eu estava me perguntando se realmente era a mesma receita....
Not the same thing. Also a way to use stale bread but is totally different
at home we do mix the milk and eggs together, thats the custard, why would you separate? We might use condensed milk as well though. And after the frying cover them in sugar and cinnamon plus a dollop of doce de leite, maybe a walnut on top. Delicious
I am from Bulgaria and my Mom had always done the third version! So we had French toast only once a year after Easter?!
I only now realize, it could be done easier... I am definitely getting fatter :D
yamaksy I am from Bulgaria too, but I've always made the first version. It turnes out amazing. But my father told me that French toast should be made with jams, not fresh fruit. Don't know if it is true.
I just made this!!! YUMMMMMMMM!!!! I love all your videos!! Going to buy your book. Thanks for sharing your knowledge in such a fun way!
Alex! As usual great video! Simple, delicious and uncomplicated. Keep up the great work man!
I love that the indulgent one is the closet to American french toast lol "a bit higher in calories"
thanks for the vegan version Alex! its been forever since i had french toast hehe
This is the recipe I’ve ever followed and I loved it!! Thank you Alex :)
J'aime beaucoup ce que vous faites; les recettes, votre studio, votre personnalité, votre station au complet💕💕💕gros sourire & bonjour du Canada!
Alex, I love you! Lol! I use butter melted on the cooked French Toast then drizzle with honey, so good!
its the banana that sticks. also, banana's foster makes a great topping. also nutella and a dollop of loosely whipped cream. or maple syrup and crispy panchetta.
Dear Alex, I simply have to say, I love your videos, your sweet atelier and of course you!
Your videos inspired me in a very difficult time in my life, just by watching you, in a very short time I started to get back on my feet and I somehow became very passionate about cooking and all the wonderful things around it! I bought a cast iron skillet and even tried to make/personalize my own knife! I just wanted to congratulate you on your 100k subs also I wanted you to know about the direct impact you had in my life, and for that I am forever grateful.
Wow I made them, they where delicious. I love your channel and how easy it looks very inspiring!!
The glasses! 👓 I need them back
You want to be really bad? Fry the toast in bacon fat.
Oooh you sick bastard
dirtybaystrangler that's just disgusting
dirtybaystrangler Uch
it's a joke
chaotic evil
really love your energy! fantastic videos!
I love the third version!
I'm hungover right now but too much so to go get bread from the market! Next time I'm planning on being drunk, I'm going to make sure I have all the ingredients for the super indulgent one beforehand.
+Kristin Marie LOL !
I always crave cheese after drinking, so I buy cheese and bacardi together for a wild weekend. ;) Nothing better then a grilled cheese the morning after.
As a person from Wisconsin, I literally always have cheese in my house :)
I just did this with hardened bread and I swear it was like an orgasm.
Thanks for the video and recipe🍞❤️☺️❤️❤️
I think you're accent makes up half of my appetite whilst watching your videos. Great work man!
This is the first video by you that I watched and I really enjoyed it!
More oil for the vegan version; oil in the batter, oil in the pan to stop it from sticking. Also grapeseed oil. Higher smoke point. Use over ripe bananas and you'll need less maple syrup also prevent sticking.
Bukki Isaacs another way of making vegan french toast is to use instant custard powder (the egg free kind that is just corn flour and vanilla)
to not kill animals :D
Im not vegan to be healthy 😂
It's so weird that this old video popped up in my feed. I was literally about to get up and make French Toast.
Google are watching!
I am so glad to have found your channel. I find your videos informative and easy to understand as well as entertaining. Anyway, my favorite toppings for french toast are butter and strawberry jam, or caramelized apples and whipped cream.
love those recipes!
Thank you so much for making a vegan version, it looks delicious!
It's similar to 'roti telur' (Translate Malay to English-> Egg bread/Omelet bread/ whatever you want to call it in English so that it makes sense to you bread) except minus the sugar, cinnamon and vanilla extract. But dang, French toast makes me drool more. Gotta try make this!
+schmatever Huh, never knew that actually. Thanks for the info though ^-^ ( No I'm not insulting, please don't get me wrong, I am gtateful for the info)
+Farah Sofiah great attitude, power to you!
+schmatever and British got French toast from French who colonized you... lmaooo roast
+N and R french toastception or... okay, I don't know what to call it
+schmatever I think I should delete my comment soon
Really helpful. Might use the first recipe tomorrow! Love the sugar in the end for caramelization! No toppings are the best toppings!
Bravo Alex, trying this tomorrow.
my favourite toppings for french toast are mandarine slices, toasted almonds and maple syrup with a splash of grand marnier. oh la la. la la.
You're hungover, she broke up with you, and you stubbed your toe on your way out of bed.... hahaha that got me 🤣
i remember when i was in middle school with zero cooking skill, i used to make french toast by mixing beaten egg and condense milk. Now that i'm older, still no cooking skill, i'm glad i learned the real way of making these. I always eat them plain, no topping team!
Intention and good will is all what matters. No topping team indeed
I love this guy!
I was about to say: No. 3 please, when I realized I have all the ingredients needed. Its frying on my stove top as I write this - I cannot wait to taste them. Smells beautiful.
I think it's the maple syrup that makes it stick. I use agave nectar as sweetener and some ground chia seeds to thicken the batter a little but and voilà! no more sticky toast and 100% vegan
(thanks for the recipe, I'll try it soon and make whatever tweaks it needs to be light but filling and slightly spicy from the cinnamon)
He sounded really English when he said wrappers at the end. Weird.
Nah he's french mate
LM VS lool i thought the sameee
He think he made one of those "eur" sounds that are typical french stuff 😂
Guess we know why Brits speak the way they do now...:)
LM VS He must have worked in UK he communicates beautifully
How cute he is, being happy about that 100k.. now he‘s almost at 1.5 million. Great Channel!! Nothing else to say.
Made the regular version today. Was great.
l accent français des famille mdddr le meilleur
I'm curious, as a person who's allergic to cows milk, would u make a video about different non-cow's milk cheeses and what fits with different dishes etc. would be awesome :P !!!
Don't bulk post your messages. I don't know so many lactose-free cheeses over here, but yes that is interesting.
Linus is just giving a god damn suggestion? Linus is not the only one in this word allergic to regular milk, so the video would be appreciated by plenty of people. About "all that work", are you serious? You make it sound like he has to build a house with his own bare hands. Stop being that rude, he wasn't harassing you?
Haha tack :) fick mig å skratta också ^^
Lejla Isic the reality is no one is really evolved to drink cows milk. My grandmother would even say "cows milk is for baby cows" lol we can get calcium from other foods too.
You can actually buy lactose enzyme pills if you are referring to being lactose intolerant.
Gonna try this!!
First time here and i really really love your Chanel 💕
yaaaay, thanks for the vegan version!
veganpizzaparty why are you vegan
Ben W I don't really think you give a fuck why, tbh... Lol
Ben W why do you care?
veganpizzaparty YAY!
Yes, thanks for the vegan version Alex! :-)
Am I the only one who noticed no glasses and he’s wearing makeup?
Yeah me to
This makes him look like a french cleaning lady.
He has makeup??
@@LittleLilaKatBoo Are you kidding? It's so heavily applied that if this cooking thing would stop working he could open a makeup glam channel.
No
You make me happy, congratulations on 100k
In Sweden we call french toast "Fattiga riddare" in english: "Poor knights"
Same in German "Armer Ritter", poor knight
In Norway we also use a variant from German, Arme riddere
Dutch: wentelteefjes which means tumbling b*tch
I love that you make vegan versions too.
But he did use animal products. Why are you trying to justify his behavior of blending baby chicks in a masserator on their first day of life? ..Seperating mothers from their calfs and they will never get to see each other again, cause the milk that is meant for the baby calf, is fed to humans. There is no excuse for animal abuse. He could have just made the vegan version. There is no need to sacrifice any lives for that dish because no animal deserve to be abused.
@@Frida_vegan Fyi an egg is not baby chick :P none of the eggs in retail ever get fertilised, maybe a class in biology would do you some good :D
Wow alen great job good to hear frech toast recipe from real french guy and also thanka so much you made vegan also no one give eggless recipe you did great..love you man from INDIA
I love this guy
Remember when Alex only had 100k subs?
Pepperidge farm remembers
So does UA-cam as it's memorialized.
but do you remember when he didnt even have 1,000? I do.
I don't get it
The problem with food being unhealthy is not if it is high or low in calories, but its nutritional profile.
Exactly.
Thanks Alex, I'm having one of those days where I need that 'Guilty' French Toast.
Congratulations Alex!!! 👏👏👏
What I Like To Do Is Whisk An Egg With Milk And Chocolate Balsamic Vinegar Then Coat Both Sides With Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese And Sprinkle On Just A Little Bit Of Fresh Basil ^_^
Chocolate from the Americas, Balsamic Vinegar from Italy, Cheddar Cheese from England. How the hell is that French? :)
YAY VEGAN VERSION!!! Thank you!
err there is eggs definitely not vegan
Suzzie did you even watch the video?
Suzzie , yeh try watching the video to then end next time :p
Or just stop being vegan and realise an animal is only worth it's use as a tool just like humans in a way
are you a vegan? /s
Mmmmmm..luv it. Congrats on 100K subscribers! Great UA-cam channel.
clicked on this in recommended, i love this guy now. instant sub
If this is supposed to be with stale bread, can I do this with a stale baguette that I just found in my pantry?
F* oui ! It's secretly the best... don't tell...
Oh shyt, I've been having the guilty one for my entire life. I made it extra guilty by adding peanuts butter and Nutella in between the bread before soaking it in the 'batter'. looks like this explains my chubby tubby ;)
Ooooh shit that sounds amazing.
J’adore!
Love the show man great work
FRENCH TOAST IS A SWEET DISH????
My mind is blown....we always made it salty
GaMeMaNiAc248 you aren't the only one :) my hubby thought it was only a savory dish until I told him otherwise. But either way is good.
Ew wtf??
Where do YOU live? I've never heard of a salty french toast. Is it good?
kenya kkworld I also know it salty: It is called 'arme Ritter' in Germany which means 'poor Knights' idk why it's called that way but u make it with milk, eggs, bread, pepper, salt, paprika powder and make it the same way u make French toast. It's also super yummy:)
I don't know where he lives but i always had it salty/savory and I'm from Poland.You make it the same but you add salt,less milk and no suger.
I live that you are so vegan friendly... j'aime ton channel (i'm so bad at french)
You are a French god, sir. 10/10
Great video!!! The topping I use for French toast is fried banana in butter, with a little yogurt! ( I cut the banana in half and then again lengthwise, before peeling). And I like to use sourdough bread.
3:46 vegan version.
Elliot Langdon thankss
Elliot Langdon THANK YOU.
Elliot Langdon anyone notice every time I go to watch a vegan video on UA-cam, there is a bacon or chicken commercial before it plays? just me?
Elliot Langdon Hahaha thank you, watched the whole thing anyway ._.
I have the same, but for me it's MacD or a dairy product?
I think vegan version is quite sticky because of sugar content in banana make it stick and burn really fast.
You mean, as opposed to the four table spoons of sugar in the non-vegan version?...
Love these vids as I am a lost cook who finds his way through these visits to your channel in Indian cooking I have found using chickpea flour with salt and other spices like fenugreek etc adds different tastes and textures to the batter
My grandmother makes the Indulgent French Bread all the time! THAT'S how I grew up!
Toping idea: thin slices of figs and pears in marsala reduction with mascarpone.
