For the last few years there has been an explosion of different gourmet toast recipes. There is probably no other ingredient in the kitchen as versatile as a loaf of bread. When hunger pangs kick in, a slice of bread is most often a favorite choice for a quick indulgence. Just pop it into a toaster, slather it with herbed butter and it’s done. Toast can be more than a light breakfast; it can be filling, creative and exciting. It can even be called dinner. Toast is getting fancy, and we think you should get on board.
