Pain Perdu
Appetizers • French
Description
One might think that the French took our Russian toasts and named them with some indecent word! But in reality, it is possible that we borrowed this simple dish, the name of which translates to 'lost bread.' This means stale bread that has been given a second life. This is the base, and you can complement it with anything: from berries and salted caramel to chocolate and ice cream.
