Mon, 08 Feb 2010 09:09:42 +0000 http://www.cottagesmallholder.com/?p=650#comment-66023 Here on the East Coast of the States, people tend to run to the grocer for eggs, bread and milk on the eve of a snowstorm. My housemate and I decided that this was because everyone feels a compunction to make French Toast (eggy bread)when it snows. We just got hammered with one blizzard (and we had delicious eggy bread and bacon) and are going to be hit with another one in two days (better get/make more bread, eh?). It's a nice tradition -- get the ingredients and have French Toast/Eggy Bread for breakfast or dinner or whatever (It's awful nice when you come in from shoveling your walkway and someone has made you a hot meal). A. PS -- LOVE the site, only wish I had more backyard space to take good advantage of!

Tip for those with children who aren't keen on their veg: I very finely grate carrot into the eggs before soaking the bread and children hardly notice it's there. It goes sweet when the bread is fried and adds a bit of healthiness! I love eggy bread too.

In my student days I discovered cheesy dreams! Like eggy bread but with a twist. You make a plain cheese sandwich on white bread, quarter, dip in the egg and fry. It really is heaven on a plate....perhaps not on the hips tho! Hi Fiona. In my student days I discovered cheesy dreams! Like eggy bread but with a twist.

Get a glass tumbler and turn it upside down on each slice to cut out a circle in the middle (you can roll up the discarded disc of bread and eat it as a dough ball while you do the next step)! spread a little tomato puree on the two slices and shallow fry in a little oil with the tomato puree side up. Break an egg into each of the holes in the bread and wait 'til they cook through before flipping them over to cook the tomato puree side in the oil. Voila! Maria's eggy bread... sort of!!!!!!

Possibly I shouldn't use cheap pre-sliced supermarket bread (it tried to tear in half as I picked it up, too soggy from the egg!) but it still tasted great.
