    SAVE YOUR BREAD CRUSTS! Then find a recipe for bread pudding and make it. Think French toast in a cake pan: milk, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla..... the bread soaks all of that up and then makes this creamy custardy stuff. I work in a local soup kitchen run by my synagogue. We get day old bread from Zabars (Zabars does not sell day-old bread btw), we add muffins, stale cookies, stale bobka, whatever. omg, it is great.
    You can also make bread crumbs with your bread crusts, and you can make croutons with them.....

  • @lostgubbins
    @lostgubbins 4 місяці тому +16

    the maple butter looked like that because you put the softened butter into cold maple syrup, which caused the butter to re-solidify because the syrup made it cold. to prevent that from happening next time, let your syrup (or whatever else you're compounding into your butter) come up to room temp first (or warm it slightly in the microwave or on the stovetop first)

    We have Mars Bars in the upper MidWest, too. Growing up a Michigander with our own Maple Syrup, we still knew Canadian was the gold standard. I also grew up on Canadian children's programming. Mr. Dress Up, The Green Forest, and The Polka Dot Door were my very favorites. I cried when I was told that Canada was not part of the United States because I wanted to be Canadian. I live in Virginia now and still get told I sound Canadian. Apparently, ending sentences with "eh?" is funny and needs to be pointed out to the Southern masses. All this to say, it is absolutely your right to claim Canadian Maple Syrup to be better than anything the U.S. produces (I am fiercely loyal to the U.S. but I can admit when we are lacking).

    Personally, I've never really understood the anti-crust bias: I love bread crust, and when I was under ten years old, would take the crust off and eat it last, as a special treat. To make things even more complicated, I love the top crust, with its rounded shape, a little more than the side and bottom, and will, to this day, eat that part of the bread last, so that I can savor it more.

      How lovely! I can’t honestly say which BC cookbook it is, it’s in storage right now along with many of my cookbooks.
      The book has a red cover and was given to me when I got married over 40 yrs ago.
      The recipe: 1 1/2 cup very cold water. 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup corn meal, 1 egg. Pinch of salt.
      My advice is, keep more cold water on hand, I keep a glass of ice water handy. I find the original recipe too think sometimes so I water it down so it cooks more evenly. As well it’s much easier to swirl in a pan like a crepe. I use a non stick pan for this, I keep it just for this recipe. Otherwise I use stainless but it doesn’t work well for this.
      Cook like you would a crepe. As it ‘cooks’ it dries out, the edges should curl up before you flip it. Flip and cook. You may decide to flip it again. The edges will be thinner and dryer but the middle will be a bit thicker. Put on a baking sheet allowing them to cool before stacking.
      Heat a pan with vegetable oil to 350. Here comes the fun part,,, hold the tortilla crepe in a pair of heat proof tongs lightly. As you drop it into the oil, hold on to it and form it into a taco shape. Cook one side until oil starts to bubble less then flip and cook the other side. I’ve tried baking these,, it never came out well.. this is the only way I’ve ever got them to work.
      Enjoy it or just collect it as a recipe. Crazy enough I learned to do this while living in the southwest! But they are nothing like original tortillas. I make those at other times but that BC recipe is now my holiday dinner! (Except thanksgiving). Maybe it’s nostalgic for us.l I don’t know.
      Good luck. Let me know if you try it!

    Québec makes one of the best maple syrup in America because of our weather and trees quality. I personally prefer dark syrup than light. It brings you to heaven. It's again part of our roots since maple syrup is incorporated in our cooking for centuries

      @@Pierre-LucTremblay It's generally understood that when someone says America, they usually refer to the USA. That's most likely where the misunderstanding comes from. We Canadians are quite touchy about being lumped in with the USA, nothing against the Americans, but we're separate nations. Agreed that Québec makes some of the best maple syrup though.

    As a Canadian I approve the using of Quebec maple syrup. 😊

      At least he got it right ;-). The only thing is that most of us do is buy it in the cans, not bottles. But then you get more than you necessarily need if not using it regularly.

    The whole point of the lidded bread pan is form a perfectly square loaf. Either not enough dough for the pan or not long enough proofing. Looks good though!

  • @songsayswhat

    Actually stale bread--at least a dayu old--works better for French toast because it absorbs the liquid better. Best French toast recipe I ever tried was from an old Southern Living magazine. I somehow lost the recipe, but I still remember it. The bread was soaked for an hour or two instead of just submerging it and frying. A soft, fresh bread probably would have fallen apart. ETA: Slice your strawberries from top to bottom for a pretty heart shape. Also, le gasp: Save the crusts for bread crumbs!

    Jaime, put your compound butters in a piping bag with a standard tip. Pipe them onto a cookie sheet lined with wax paper and pop em in the freezer until you're ready to serve them. Looks better. Melts better. Plus once they're solid you can fold them up in the wax paper, put em into a ziplock bag and keep them in the freezer for other stuff. Label the bag with the flavorings you used tho. You don't wanna put garlic thyme butter on your French toast...
