  • About

This sweet treat is the Spanish version of French toast. It is traditionally prepared during Lent, but is equally popular for breakfast any time. It is believed to have originated in the Andalusian convents in the fifteenth century as a way to use up stale bread. Choose a bread with a fine crumb and uniform texture, such as a brioche or challah.
