Recipe story

French toast, also known as 'lost bread', originated in medieval Europe as a way to use stale bread. The recipe was refined in 17th-century France, where bread slices were soaked in an egg and milk mixture and fried in butter. Over time, it became a popular breakfast worldwide, adapted in countless variations.
