Sourdough Toast

Toast bread
Brush one side of each slice with a thin layer of melted butter (about 1/2 tbs per slice). Place buttered side down in the hot pan. Toast until deep golden and crisp, 2–3 minutes. While toasting, brush the top side with the remaining butter and flip; toast the second side 1–2 minutes until crisp but still slightly chewy in the center. Work in batches if needed so the pan is not crowded.

Finish seasoning
Transfer toasted slices to a plate. Sprinkle each slice lightly with sea salt (about 1/4 tsp per 2 slices) and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
