Its just you. I'm not restraining.

[–] MojoMcJojo@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago

On of last memories of my father when he had cancer was eating an entire loaf of toast with him. We just kept laughing and making more until there was no more bread on the house

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

I only have to resist that when I bake my own bread. Which I resist by being lazy and not making bread since I want it NOW and not 4 to 6 hours from now after working the dough and letting it rise.

[–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Bread makers are a gift of the gods.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 points 16 hours ago

Does it make bread NOW? 🤔

[–] Bakkoda@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago

Toasted rye, thick cut and some extra salty butter ... 🤤

[–] LoafedBurrito@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

This is mainly why i don't buy bread loafs anymore. I will make 4 or 6 slices of toast and wonder why i'm such a fatass.

[–] winkledinkle@sh.itjust.works 1 points 18 hours ago

Usually when I bake bread, I have to remind myself that there are more than 30 seconds in a week and this has to last.

"occasional phase", sir you mispelled "permanent condition of humanity"

[–] chetradley@lemmy.world 1 points 19 hours ago

This but with peanut butter instead of butter, and a glass of oat milk.

[–] RamenJunkie@midwest.social 3 points 1 day ago

Lately I have discovered plain toast is pretty good.

[–] peetabix@sh.itjust.works 1 points 21 hours ago

After how many decades should I expect this "occasional phase" to end?

[–] DemandtheOxfordComma@sh.itjust.works 21 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (4 children)

I remember fresh bread and butter. Yum.

Not anymore though because my body decided it makes sense to attack itself when I eat the tiniest particle of gluten. Celiac disease. Ugh.

[–] anon6789@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Potatoes and butter.

I'd probably pick bread as my favorite food, but at one point doc had me try going gluten free to rule out some possibilities. No gluten issue, but it really made me value a nice potato! Potato is just underground bread.

[–] pseudo@jlai.lu 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes but don't forget the salt there.

[–] anon6789@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Syracuse, New York is nicknamed Salt City, as it was a huge commercial salt producer for many years. There is a dish called Syracuse Salt Potatoes which boils the potatoes in a very saturated brine, as salt was in no short supply.

The skin on the small potatoes keeps too much of the salt from being absorbed, and the centers get such a creamy texture while as the water evaporated off the skins from residual heat, it leaves a beautiful powdered salt coating all over the outside. Then cover or dip (I like to dip so the salt doesn't run off) in melted butter and enjoy! Must be tasted to be believed.

[–] svcg@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Very similar to papas arrugadas, a traditional dish in the Canary Islands.

[–] anon6789@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yum, those with that mojo sauce and a nice piece of fish does sound really good!

[–] svcg@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Indeed so, but I think their true genius is as a tapa. They pair well with lager on a sunny day (which you'll obviously be drinking a lot more of, because of the salt), and they beat the hell out of a packet of crisps.

[–] anon6789@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

You are really selling me on the Canarian lifestyle.... 😎

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

I love potatoes. I used to talk down on them too. Not anymore. Meat and potatoes, or beans and potatoes whatever you want.

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 4 points 1 day ago

You probably know this stuff better than me since you're coeliac, but just in case you don't: try the Loopy Whisk's bread recipes. I have a couple of coeliac family members and these are by far the best results I've gotten for making gluten free bread for them

OP probably high when writing the post

[–] notabot@piefed.social 47 points 2 days ago (2 children)

No need to be high, hot buttered toast is, in fact, amongst, if not the, tastiest creation on the planet. It's got carbs and it's got fat, a combination which is almost as temoting as sugar and fat.

[–] plantfanatic@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago (4 children)

You also sprinkle some stuff on it for variety, cinnamon, curry, cumin, sprinkles, sugar, etc.

I went through a butter toast phase when i was about 10. It started as just 1 slice after school. Then, it was 2. Then, 3. Then 1-2 every hour before bed until my mom finally put a stop to it. You could smell that the downstairs neighbors were crack heads, but i dont think i ever had a contact high to trigger the butter toast phase. I just liked toast for the toast of it.

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Buttered toast with some garlic powder was one of my go-to "I'm broke as hell, but at least this is tasty" foods.

[–] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Hmm.. I wonder how onion powder would be. Onion is my favorite bagel.

TF I'm in my 40s and when I make bread with dinner it's basically the same thing with some kind of fancy bread. Olive loaf is calling my name.

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 1 points 1 day ago

Fancy bread is for when you're not broke as hell.

[–] irelephant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Peanut butter and jam is an amazing combo.

[–] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Instead of putting it on toast, make a grilled PB&J. Butter it and cook it in a skillet just like a grilled cheese.

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

but i like the jam to be cold

[–] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 2 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

I'd say it's worth trying once. It's quite delicious.

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago

i did at some point, i burnt my tongue on the hot jam and the rest was meh. just not my thing

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Sounds like a "it's 2am and I'm stoned" thing. So sometimes, yes.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Wait, we're supposed to restrain ourselves??

Carb loading

My daughter has just discovered the joys of fresh baguette with butter. It's all she wants all day long

[–] wieson@feddit.org 5 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Yes, but with real bread.

It's super delicious and I feel fulfilled after 2 or 3 slices.

Come to France and try toasted baguette with salted butter, it won't be a phase.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

i used to work next door to a bakery. the owner/baker grew up (and learned to bake) in belgium. she imported her flour. probably still does. it was my first job and i still miss that summer sometimes. Tina and I still do coffee once a month.

[–] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

That all depends on if I smoke weed or not.
