SPANISH-STYLE FRENCH TOAST WITH ANISE SYRUP (TORRIJAS)



Spanish-Style French Toast with Anise Syrup (Torrijas) image

Provided by Alejandra Ramos

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup honey
1 tablespoon fresh orange zest
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cinnamon sticks
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 teaspoon anise extract
1 day-old or stale thick French or Italian-style baguette
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups whole milk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
Flaky sea salt, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the anise syrup: Combine 1 1/2 cups water with the sugar, honey, orange zest, salt and cinnamon sticks in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, about 3 minutes. Boil for 1 minute, then reduce to low heat and simmer until the mixture reduces to a thin syrup, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the almond and anise extracts.
  • For the Spanish-style French toast (torrijas): Slice the baguette on the bias into 1-inch thick slices. Whisk together the eggs and milk in a shallow bowl. Dip the bread in the mixture and soak for 30 seconds to 1 minute (do not let the bread get too soggy).
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the soaked bread in batches until golden on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining bread, adding more butter as needed.
  • Place the torrijas on a slightly concave or rimmed serving platter and cover fully with the Anise Syrup. Let soak at least 20 minutes before serving, if time allows. Serve warm or at room temperature sprinkled with a bit of the flaky sea salt.

SPANISH FRENCH TOAST



Spanish French Toast image

There is French toast, and then there are torrijas, the Spanish version. The origins of both are undoubtedly the same: yet another way to make good use of bread that's no longer fresh. Though torrijas, like French toast, can be served at breakfast, they can also be a knockout dessert.

Categories     breakfast, easy, quick, main course

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Olive oil as needed
2 cups milk
Pinch salt
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 large, very thick slices eggy bread, like brioche or challah, preferably stale, cut in half, or 4 smaller slices
Cinnamon sugar
Warmed maple syrup or honey, optional

Steps:

  • Pour olive oil to a depth of 1/2 inch in a broad, deep skillet over medium-high heat; bring it to a temperature of about 350 degrees. When ready, a small cube of bread dropped into oil will sink to bottom, then immediately rise to top.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the milk, salt and sugar in a broad bowl. In a separate bowl, beat eggs. When oil is ready, soak a piece of bread in milk, then dip in egg. Shake off excess liquid, then transfer to oil. Stand back, as it will spatter. Repeat with remaining bread.
  • Cook about a minute on each side, turning carefully; bread should be very crisp on edges. When done, transfer to a plate, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and serve immediately, with honey or maple syrup if you like.

TORRIJAS: SPANISH STYLE FRENCH TOAST WITH CINNAMON AND HONEY



Torrijas: Spanish Style French Toast with Cinnamon and Honey image

Torrijas are a delicious Spanish style French toast that is typical around Easter. Here's my favorite torrijas recipe!

Provided by Lauren Aloise

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large eggs
1 liter (about a quart) of whole milk
1 cup of sugar (200g)
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
3 tablespoons of honey
Extra Virgin Olive Oil ((good quality))
1 strip of lemon peel
1 strip orange peel
1 teaspoon of cardamom seeds ((optional))
1 star anise ((optional))
A thick bar of slightly stale French bread

Steps:

  • Bring the milk, ½ cup of sugar, lemon and orange peel, and spices (cardamom seeds and star anise) to a slow simmer.
  • Cut the bread in thick slices.
  • When the milk mixture has been simmering for about 15 minutes, turn off the heat and soak the slices of bread in this mixture. Be careful not to completely wet them to the point that they will break apart, but try to get them to absorb as much milk as possible.
  • Let the slices of wet bread rest and cool (some liquid may be lost).
  • Beat the eggs in a shallow bowl and dip the bread slices in the egg mixture. In the meantime, heat up about ½ an inch of the olive oil in a deep, heavy pan on medium-high heat.
  • Fry the slices two by two, flipping them halfway so that both sides are nice and crisp.
  • Let the torrijas rest on paper towels to absorb excess oil. In another bowl mix the remaining sugar (1/2 cup) with the cinnamon.
  • Cover the slices in the cinnamon sugar mixture and reserve.
  • Finally, make the syrup. Take the remaining cinnamon and sugar from coating the torrijas and add it to a medium-sized pot. Add a bit more sugar to completely cover the bottom of the pot if necessary.
  • Add 2 cups of warm water to the sugar and bring it to a boil.
  • Add the honey (you can add more or less depending on preference).
  • Allow the syrup to simmer for about 30 minutes until it reduces to a syrup-like consistency. It won't be a very thick syrup, but it shouldn't be too watery.
  • Take the syrup off of the heat and after about 15 minutes spoon it over the French toast. The torrijas should be completely soaked in syrup. Allow them to completely cool before putting them into the refrigerator.
  • Refrigerate the torrijas for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight.
  • Enjoy within two or three days for best quality! (I doubt they'll last that long anyway!)

SPANISH TORRIJAS RECIPE



Spanish Torrijas Recipe image

Torrijas have long been part of the Spanish cuisine. Know how to make this decadent delight with our easy-to-follow Spanish Torrijas recipe.

Provided by Tim Kroeger

Categories     Spanish Dessert

Time 5h5m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1-liter milk
Bread from the previous day
3 to 4 eggs
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Lemon and orange peel
Sugar
Cinnamon (powder)
1 cinnamon stick

Steps:

  • 1. Cut the bread in slices Cut the bread in slices of around one inch or 2.5 centimeters. I recommended using bread from the previous day or even bread that is two or three days old. If the bread is hard, it can soak up more milk. 2. Cut off a few small pieces of fresh lemon and orange peel. 3. Let the bread soak in milkMix the milk with the cinnamon stick and the orange & lemon peel. Afterward soak the slices of bread in the milk and let it rest for around four hours. The longer you soak the bread in the milk the juicier the Torrijas will get. 4. Dip the bread in the eggAfter four hours, take the pieces of bread out of the milk and let them drain for a few minutes. Meanwhile, beat the eggs in a shallow bowl. In the next step dip the bread slices with both sides one by one in the egg. 5. Deep fry the soaked bread slicesHeat up around 1 inch of olive oil in a pan and carefully transfer the soaked bread slices into the oil. I recommend using a spatula and a fork as the bread will be very soft and can break easily. Fry the slices for around two to three minutes on each side until they are brown. 6. Put the bread on a paper towelOnce the bread is done take it out and put it for a few minutes on a paper towel. 7. Dunk the bread in a sugar & cinnamon mixture Mix sugar and cinnamon on a deep plate and dunk the bread slices into it. 8. Enjoy your home-made Spanish Torrijas!
