BRUNCH

Method

BRUNCH

  1. 1

    Toast the bread

    Place the bread slices in a toaster and toast on a medium setting until golden and fragrant, or cook in a skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side.

  2. 2

    Warm and prep butter

    If the butter is cold, let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes or microwave briefly until softened, so it spreads smoothly on the hot toast.

  3. 3

    Butter the toast

    Spread the softened butter evenly across the warm toast while it’s still hot so it melts into the surface.

  4. 4

    Season

    Lightly sprinkle a pinch of salt over the buttered toast to enhance flavor.

  5. 5

    Add jam (optional)

    If using jam, spread a thin layer on one side of the toast or on one slice; adjust the amount to taste.
