Post Past: Ricotta stuffed French Toast

So we are landed immigrants in NYC for the next week or so. Strange feeling to be back here with a 3 month lag. The good news is that nothing really changes.
Crowds, tourists, stalled subways? Check. Four random people blessed me when I sneezed. Feeling the love.

Post past: Ricotta French Toast

Char had been inspired by a food network treat and recreated it for us the Sunday before we left MN. I have had visions of French toast since then... This is my adapted version of the delightful brunch treat:
  • 2 slices of bread per person (brioche, Challah, cinnamon raisin bread...)
  • 2-3 eggs beaten in a bowl with a cup of milk or half&half, cinnamon, nutmeg, sugar to taste.
  • fresh ricotta, raw honey, berries (fresh preferable) or other seasonal fruit.
  • Frying pan, butter or canola oil for frying.
1) Make a sandwich of the bread, ricotta, berries. Spread with raw honey if preferred.
2) Beat egg mixture till frothy and all ingredients are well blended.
3) Heat and grease pan.
4) Dip each sandwich in the egg mixture and coat well.
5) Fry french toast on both sides till crisp.
6) Serve with additional fruit, dust with powdered sugar.

But how many of those people who blessed you also tried to mug you at the same time?

How could I be angry that you left find work and fun? Oh Pish. I hope you're having a blast! I'll see when you're back in town - whenever that may be:)))
