And the Valley Cooks: Lost Bread

Related Topics: Bread

So Mother’s Day is coming up. And that means breakfast, or brunch usually. Preferably in bed for Mom, be her yours, or your wife should the day apply.

When we’re kids, this usually means burnt pancakes and bacon, but we’re all growed up now. Or that’s the rumor anyway. So time to step the game up. French that toast up a bit with some New Orleans-style Lost Bread. AKA Pain Perdu. Note: the ghost of my late Maw Maw is currently imploring you to pronounce it pronounce it “PAN PEAR-D’YOO!”

Lost Bread is made with French bread, and gets it name from typically being a way of getting something out of the old, stale, unused portion of a loaf.
