Hartson'S 4Th Of July French Toast Flag

Hartson'S 4Th Of July French Toast Flag


1. :

2. Add one half ½ cup of Champagne of choice to a Champagne glass and fill to the top with Grapefruit Juice. Begin sipping while you cook your flag masterpiece as directed below (this is for the cook, ingredients not listed in recipe but great for the chef)!

3. Wash then cut Strawberries lengthwise. Discard first and last cut to the side (it’s great for snacking while you’re cooking). Set aside remaining slices.

4. Wash Blueberries. Discard flawed blueberries. Set aside selected blueberries.

5. Egg Mixture: Beat eggs and place in small dish, large enough to hold egg mix and one or more bread slices (to be added later).

6. Add and mix Vanilla extract and Milk.

7. Bacon: Begin Cooking bacon and set aside for finishing touches later. I recommend cooking the bacon in a fashion to prevent it from curling. Here is my suggestion: Here's a recipe for Bacon - Boiled [Amazingly Simple and Quick] from Food.com: http://www.food.com/recipe/bacon-boiled-amazingly-simple-and-quick-531699?nl=email_share.

8. Place one or more pieces of Hawaiian Bread slices in egg mixture. Flip. Coat both sides so egg mixture adheres to bread slices but does not over saturate (Important so inside is not soggy).

9. Heat frying pan at medium temperature until drops of water quickly sizzle/evaporate. Add small amount of butter to frying pan (this will add to the French toast crispness).

10. Place Hawaiian bread slices coated with egg mix onto frying pan. Cook both sides until lightly brown (about 4 minutes per side). I recommend cooking an extra piece and checking for doneness before getting ready to cook the rest for your dinner guests.

11. Plate two pieces of finished cooked bread (French toast), staggered.

12. Add three (3) rows of three (3) across blueberries to upper left corner of each slice of French toast.

13. Add row of Strawberry Slices end to end across to piece of French toast starting where the blueberry’s first row stopped.

14. Add a row of whipped cream from a can to each slice of French toast below the line of strawberries.

15. Continue to alternate Strawberry/Whipped cream rows to bottom of French toast.

16. Add cooked piece of bacon vertically from the top of the left side of each piece of French Toast.

17. Serve.
