FRENCH TOAST!!
I first saw this when I was 8.
On her first meal back home, breakfast, her Mom asks her
if she wants french toast. I saw that and said: "Ooooo!"
See, 'cause my grandmother would occasionaly make french toast
for breakfast for me and I just thought it was the best thing ever!
And plus, this is the first time I'd seen or heard "french toast"
being mentioned on TV, in movies, wherever outside of my kitchen.
By the by, french toast has nothing to do with France.
Which was what I thought as a little kid, you know: fancy French cooking & all ....
I thought french toast was the elaborate way they made toast! lol
But the reason it's called "french toast" is because frenching is a cooking method:
frying something in shallow oil, like sauteêing, I suppose, but I don't see the difference.
Anyhoo, after frenching batter-dipped bread until it's a toasty golden brown, et voilá, "french toast"!
Thus ends the food lesson for today.
The only thing I'm not clear on is whether or not this was on NBC or CBS.
I wanna say NBC. Am I right?
