MY FAVORITE FRENCH TOAST

My Favorite French Toast image

I'd been polishing this recipe for a while, then found the absolute best bread to use and now The Beau says I've ruined him for all other French Toast. It's called shoku pan, it's from the Japanese bakery. Shoku pan is wonderfully square and comes sliced either thin or thick--each of the thick slices are an inch fat! Look for it at an Asian market, I get mine at Uwajimaya or 99 Ranch Market and buy it a couple of days before I'm planning to make this so the bread is slightly stale. If you can't find shoku pan, substitute another thick sliced Texas Toast style bread.

Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the French toast. This will prevent the slices from cooking evenly.
Cook the French toast over medium heat so that it has time to cook through without burning.
Flip the French toast only once during cooking. This will help it to cook evenly and prevent it from breaking.
Serve the French toast immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
