Why is no one talking about how toxic our everyday cooking utensils have become
Food is constantly stored and prepared in plastic, aluminum, and Teflonmaterials known to leach harmful substances, especially under heat. We obsess over organic ingredients, yet ignore the surfaces they touch. The container matters as much as the food.
P. s just pay attention to his saucepan

Potato bread is the best choice for French toast. I used the Chef Jean Pierre recipe and tried it at his recommendation. It's incredible.
The cinnamon is much better dusted onto each slice just before cooking. It never dissolves into the custard and being on the surface allows the griddle to bring out its full flavor.

When someone adds all those ingredients to the batter, then makes and adds all that other stuff, do u really taste ALL the flavors that are in every part of every thing that makes this Seems just like a way to make it seem special and charge more than it's actually worth.

The stand out piece here is that the French Toast isn't coated in anything and is presented 'dry'. You know if that couldn't stand on it's own they would have mixed the banana, pecan and maple butter together and smothered them.

I'd add golden rum/brandy to the bananas
Most of the time I'm a lemon juice / sugar girl
I do sprinkle a bit of sugar onto the bread before placing in the butter - less in the main batter

It is called a 'Pullman Loaf' because, if baked in the pan with the lid, the size of the loaf was standardized, efficient, and most important to George Pullman, saved a bit of money

Love Neil to bits - a great chef and seems like a super knowledgeable and friendly guy but Clinton St. 's is definitely not the best French Toast in NYC.

Wow I do the same but instead of cinnamon I put garlic and onion powder and specs of green chillies- minus the bananas and sugar. We call it Bombay toast

Not for me unfortunately cause wayyy too much calories (sugar and butter) VS the nutrition you're getting. Not judgement if you like this of course

Can vouch as a New Yorker, best breakfast I've had in the city. The pancakes and latke benedict are also world-class. Just ate there again today!

Neil is a great guy, met him many years ago as he was promoting his pancake book, helped him out in the kitchen making the blueberry pancakes.

This is a great French toast walkthrough. Bread choice, batter balance, soak/drain, heat control, and the maple butter all make sense

I always cut it in the center to see if it's medium rare. I hate rare French toast and well done reminds me of my child hood
