French Toast
- 1 loaf bread
- 4 1/4 cups milk
- 2 lemon peels
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 5 eggs
- oil
- sugar
- cinnamon to taste
- Buy bread at the bakery about 2 or 3 days ahead of time.
- On cooking day, cut the bread in 1 to 1 1/2 centimeter slices. Cut off the corners.
- Meanwhile, heat the milk with the lemon peel and the cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil, and immediately remove from heat. Set aside.
- Heat a skillet with at least 3 fingers of cooking oil.
- Prepare four soup plates, to organize a chain process. In the first, place the milk, already warm. In the second, the whisked eggs. In the third, paper towels. In the fourth, sugar and cinnamon (enough).
- When the oil is hot (but not too hot) submerge each slice of bread in the milk. Let it soak for about 5 seconds on both sides.
- Then, pass the bread through the egg, also on both sides, and carefully place in the oil. Brown each slice of bread on both sides.
- Remove from skillet and place in bowl with paper towels, which should be changed regularly.
- Coat well-drained toast with sugar and cinnamon. Don't forget the sides of the toast.
