I like it with dark cherry jam on one slice and peanut butter on the other, with a glass of milk. I also like marmalade and vegemite. Sourdough of course.
The best toaster in the world is the Sunbeam Toastermatic. They don’t make them anymore, but the old ones are repairable, and they’re totally awesome. I think mine was made in 1954 or something. It’s 2000w so cooks quickly, crusting up the outside perfectly while the inside is still a bit chewy. You can chuck it in frozen or whatever; it’ll cook it perfectly every time.
Anyway, just thought I’d start the thread and see what pops up.
Peanut butter (unsweetened) with hotsauce (tapatio etc) is good.
Peanut butter and sour cherry jam on the same piece, or substitute jam for nutella.
Marmite and Avocado is a classic.
Fruit toast with blue cheese.
Ajvar and cheese.
I used to have a toaster that instead of two slots had one long one, you could push the lever down, then slide in a piece of untoasted cheese on toast, lie the toaster on its side, put a plate next to it and the slice of cheese on toast would pop out onto the plate.
I’ve considered a magic toaster that runs variable power to the elements so that the time to cook is constant from warmed to charred. Then I realised that it would affect the internal temperature too much.
sourdough, toasted then rubbed with a garlic clove, olive oil, avocado, S&P & some viagrr/la bomba chili/eggplant/shroom mix
peanut butter/sliced tomatoes from the garden/S&P.
onion bagels
fruition fruit loaf
all great.
My Great Aunt had a Toastermatic. We’d spend summer holidays with her in Aireys Inlet and as kids the Toastermatic always fascinated my sister and me. There’s a good chance she bought it after she moved out from the UK in the early 50s. I wish I knew where it went.
Steve Albini is a huge fan of toast. According to his old cooking blog.
I just bought a sweet breville fully automatic toaster. Cost a fortune for a toaster, but is so good.
