if you cant tell, i get emotional about toast.
and here is something which i GAURENTEE you can eat without distestinal discomfort. probably.
Toast
you will need at least 1 slice of bread. i recommend 2-8 slices for optimal deliciousness. the type of bread you use is one of the most important factors. texas toast is one of the classically rewarding, and i can recommend it highly, but by far the best is thinly sliced homemade, preferably white although whole wheat is delicious too. multigrains are also pretty tasty.
you will also need a toaster. if you dont have a toaster, you can also cook it in a pan or the oven, although those are both quite a bit more labor intensive.
insert toast into toaster (or oven, or on pan) and bake until thoroughly browned on both sides. if you dont get it properly browned, i will personally come to your house and bluudgeon with the toaster. there is a reason it's called TOAST. if of wasnt supposed to be brown, or at least golden, we'd call it "limp, lifeless mildly heated bread... stuff". and we would never, ever eat it.
the most important part of making toast isnt the actual cooking though. its ALL in the buttering. you have to start buttering it as soon as it's out of the oven, no matter how hot it is. i dont care of you end up recieving fourth degree burns all over your body, you have to butter as soon as its done cooking. make sure the butter is spread evenly all over the toast, and that there is plenty of it. butterless toast is almost as bad as mildly heated bread stuff.
and finally, you have to top it. a properly made slice of toast can be eaten without sweetening of any kind, but a touch of honey or jam (i favor raspberry and blackberry) can transform it into pure ambrosia.
and THAT, sir or ma'am, is how you make toast.

You should call this "Rhapsody on Toast" and hang it in your room. It is a masterpiece.
