I know the vast majority of people get french toast completely wrong (the drying out the bread steps, making a proper custard, soaking it etc) but this is next level. As a chef I am completely impressed. I need to try this out sometime. I don't think the brandy is overkill at all, it would be an amazing flavor compliment! Chef Frank and Saul never fail to completely dazzle and entertain me to no end.

Decades ago when I was in France I had Pain Perdu (I:E; French Toast) several times at different eateries and it was mind blowing. However, whenever I asked if they had syrup I got a look of "What?" and they knew I was an American Tourist. Authentic made Pain Perdu (French toast) doesn't need any syrup, just butter melted on top with a light dusting of powdered sugar...it's really that delicious.
@meta4four
@meta4four 10 ай бұрын
That would be because maple syrup is indigenous to North America, thus there would be no reason for France to favour it, nor would there be any reason for it to be "traditional" to their pain perdu preparation. However, just because someone does something one way, it doesn't mean that it can't be improved. There is nothing inherently "better" about powdered sugar, in fact maple syrup is considerably more flavourful.

@@meta4fourIt makes the dish sweeter though, obviously depending on the amount added. Americans' and Europeans' pallets are generally speaking not in agreement regarding what's an enjoyable degree of sweetness in food. Quite different cultures in that respect. I remember how my family and I were perplexed by this the first time we made a visit across the pond, especially concerning the foods that in our minds weren't supposed to taste sweet at all.

Actually French toast doesn’t really have anything to do with pain perdu. Pain perdu recipe is quite simple. A stale baguette, half liter of milk, three eggs and 50 g of sugar. That’s it. Back in the time, poor people would make pain perdu to not letting braid go to waste and of course, at that time maple syrup wasn’t even produced in France. Even though we know now about maple syrup, we still don’t really are big consumers of it. It’s just not part of our culture.

For those of us pastry chefs who weigh every ingredient, 4 eggs is close to 200g, maybe a bit more depending on specific egg size, while two American cups of milk/cream = 450g. About 2-1, liquid to eggs if you're making a big batch.

I’m not at all certain about that sugar. Who am I to question a chef at this level. I mean after all you don’t really need it to brown or caramelized the toast, toast the eggs and the customer is going to do their thing. And then, of course she’s gonna add maple syrup. And maybe powdered sugar.

I love real maple syrup, but sometimes it's too sweet for me as i tend to prefer savory flavors. I love homemade blueberry syrup using frozen blueberries though. If they are frozen and heated slow in a pot, you don't need to add more sugar to make the syrup if you like just a medium sweet or have to watch your sugar. Just heat it slow and gently squish the blueberries as they cook. Freezing them already helped break the cells to let the juices out like adding sugar would, so you just cook them low and slow until they reduce to the consistency you want using the natural sugar in the blueberries.

Go with "Grade A Dark" or "Grade B" maple syrup. Avoid any that say "light" or "golden". (Grade A Dark used to be called Grade B, but people didn't like buying anything marked as B, so they changed the name. It is just less filtered) The dark ones have way more maple flavour, so you need less to get the great flavour, and thus it isn't as sweet.

I really want to try french toast with maple syrup sometime, it looks like it'd be delicious! We make it very differently in Brazil usually lol. For starters, we usually make our custard with sweetened condensed milk instead of sugar, so it's sweeter and creamier, even if you use regular milk instead of cream, but also, we usually roll them in a mix of sugar and cinnamon ofter cooking, so I never considered the syrup.

I had a stale baguette and decided to use this recipe (minus the brandy.) It was incredible, I never knew that French Toast could taste like this. I will never make it another way again.

Made this for guests this morning and they were blown away! I added strawberries, bananas, raspberries, maple syrup and redi-whip to top it off instead of more butter. You already cooked it in butter.

Reducing the syrup will make it thicker helping it stick better and adds more flavorful too.

Challah and brioche bread is the only bread I’ll use for French toast! I also cut mine super thick haha except I use cinnamon instead of nutmeg or sometimes both. But this looks fantastic I’m gona have to try cooking it in butter next time I don’t know why I’ve never thought to do that😂

This is my exact method except the orange and brandy. I like nutmeg and cinnamon. The family never complains. And when they see me with a fresh loaf of challah on a Friday they KNOW Saturday breakfast is going to be awesome.
