FRENCH TOAST-LECINQBLOG'S BREAKFAST SERIES-VEGAN FRENCH TOAST
I am CURRENTLY a PRACTICING PHYSICIAN .However, I did complete TWO YEARS of college studying GENERAL BIOCHEMISTRY AND MICROBIOLOGY, Food technology,Food Microbiology and Biochemistry prior to deciding that I am more inclined to the CLINICAL SIDE of things and hence decided to get into MEDICAL SCIENCE .I did very well in medical school thereafter and am now a "kick-ass" doctor .My interest in "Food" and the "Science of cooking" continues to this day and explains why I now have a Food blog as part of my LECINQBLOG family.I seek to dispel FOOD FADS, food myths via this food blog.I seek also to increase health awareness by canvassing for healthier diets.
I really don't like labeling my food as VEGAN versions of non vegan food.Because most of recipes are just ORIGINAL VERSIONS which just happen to use plant products.They are not in anyway SUBSTITUTES or replacements for any other recipe, because,I HAVE NEVER EATEN MEAT IN MY LIFE and thus, I SEEK NO REPLACEMENTS.
Okay,after that mini lecture,let us proceed to talk about that thing in the picture.IT IS A MINI FRENCH TOAST.And yes , this time, IT IS A REPLACEMENT.
I was ovolactovegetarian till 2008 when finally I WENT VEGAN.One thing I missed after going vegan WAS THE FRENCH TOAST.
So, I wrote down all the pointers of what it is that I love about french toast .Here goes:
1/the coated bread that is shallow fried gives it an ever so slight oily crunchy crust
2/the warmth of the breadslice as it is served hot from pan
3/the slight sweetness of it
4/the appareance of it
THEN I meticulously incorporated all those factors into my NEW VEGAN RECIPE FOR FRENCH TOAST and REPLICATED those features.
The end result? THE PICTURE ABOVE.
I actually used slices of the thin baguettes that I MADE MYSELF from scratch.
How did it taste? I THINK IT TASTED GOOD AND given that it was MINI size, I COULD pop one in my mouth, go , chomp , chomp, then swallow...DELICIOSO.
POSTNOTE: Recipes not included due to plagiarism concerns.I device and design my own recipes all the time and I am saving up all recipes for a FUTURE VEGETARIAN COOKBOOK.
