how else can you make toast

Toast Bread In The Oven You can use your oven’s usual baking setting to give your toast the perfect texture. For this method, preheat your oven to 350-400º. A heat of 350º will cause your toast to be more browned, while a heat of 400º will result in a crunchy texture.

What to put on your toast

• 1 Find out what your toast is missing.
  • Try your toast using your tested method and decide what you could add onto it. Is it missing a bit of salt? Sugar? Fruity flavor? Whatever you think would improve it. (This is obviously optional, you can always eat the toast plain if you prefer it that way.) Try to pinpoint the specific item you think would improve your toast.
• 2 Test out different toppings.
  • Look around your fridge/cupboard and try a few different ingredients on your toast until you find something you like.
  • If you know what topping you want to add but dont have it, see if your local grocery store has it and that it isnt too expensive.
  • Some ingredients, such as butter, may be difficult to spread on your toast. Buying alternatives like spreadable margarine can make your morning toast less of a hassle (provided you enjoy the taste of it). You may also be able to leave your butter out in a sealed butter container, as long as you dont leave it out for too long it should be fine and make it much easier to spread.

Properly Toasting Your Bread

• 1 Decide what level of browning you would like in your toast.
  • Do you like your toast crunchy? Or a little on the softer side? It is important to define what your ideal toast is to better develop a method of achieving it.
  • Different flavors of bread should be toasted at different levels. Depending on the bread, you may want to toast it differently. As stated earlier, you want to determine how your method of toasting will affect the characteristics you enjoy in the bread. If you hate when toast is soft in the middle, consider cooking it longer and vice versa.
• 2 Take into account the density and thickness of your bread.
  • Denser bread will take longer to toast and for the crunch to reach the middle of them. The opposite is true with airy, thin bread and you will want to adjust the cook time accordingly.
  • The density and uniformity of your bread can affect how evenly toasted the end result is. Large bubbles in your bread can cause those areas to burn easily, while dense bread with small, uniform bubbles will usually have very even coloration.
• 3 Find the best way of toasting your bread.
  • 2 variables are very important when cooking toast: time and heat.
  • The longer you cook the toast, the browner it will get. This is true of all heat levels.
  • Knowing how deep into your bread you want the crunch to go will affect the heat level. For example, you may want your bread to reach a certain color, and although that is achievable by simply picking the highest setting and removing it after a short amount of time, the inside of the bread will still be like normal bread. Depending on how long your bread takes to cook and how crunchy you want it will affect both of these variables.
  • To experiment with this, toast your bread in a non-stick pan and find what level of heat and amount of time achieves your desired texture.
• 4 Adapt the cooking method to your toaster.
  • Maybe one of the levels on your toaster achieves the desired outward appearance, but the bread on the inside is still uncooked. To solve this, simply pick a lower setting and run the toaster for longer. You may have to run it more than once, but you can always stop in the middle if twice the cook time is too much.
  • If your toaster cooks unevenly, you can flip and rotate the toast at different times while your bread is toasting.
