Traditional torrijas with an exotic touch.

In Spain, torrija season is increasingly coming earlier. Such is the passion for this traditional sweet typical of Easter in Spain that more and more restaurants are offering torrijas on their menus, regardless of the season.

At Biribox, we offer a way to give your French toast a unique touch with Cannamela's turmeric latte, a unique product on the market.

These preparations are made with organic ingredients from organic farming. They are a sublime combination of turmeric, cinnamon, and ginger with a touch of black pepper, to be added to milk or a plant-based drink to prepare the famous Golden Milk drink. This recipe, with Ayurvedic origins dating back to ancient times, has a multitude of beneficial properties for the body and has become a popular drink in recent years among those who like to take care of themselves.

The recipe for this French toast is so simple and the results are so spectacular that you'll love it. Take note!

Ingredients:

  • Sliced ​​French toast bread. 20 servings.
  • Milk 1 l
  • Sugar 100 g
  • 4 small teaspoons turmeric latte Cannamela
  • Olive oil 1 l
  • Eggs 2
  • Sugar for coating
  • Ground cinnamon for coating.

Preparation:

1. Cut the bread into slices. The bread should be from the day before (it absorbs the milk better and this results in juicier, creamier French toast) and cut it into slices of approximately one and a half or two centimeters.

There's also special bread for torrijas. Choose a quality one.

2. In a saucepan, add the milk, add the turmeric latte, and bring to a boil. Once it has boiled, remove from heat, cover, and let cool.

3. Pour the milk onto a baking sheet and place the bread slices on top. Let them soak in the refrigerator for about an hour.

4. Heat a frying pan with plenty of olive oil and beat an egg.

5. Coat the bread in egg and fry in a pan with very hot oil on both sides.

6. Let the torrijas rest on a plate lined with kitchen paper to absorb any excess oil. Place in the refrigerator.

7. Before serving, sprinkle the torrijas with sugar and ground cinnamon.

You can accompany the torrijas with vanilla ice cream, red berries, strawberries or simply on their own - they are delicious!
