Recipe story

French toast, known as 'pain perdu' in French cuisine, has been a way to use stale bread for centuries. In Italy, savory versions with cheese are common in northern regions, often using fontina or mozzarella. This modern air fryer recipe offers a crispy texture without deep frying, preserving the authentic taste tradition.
