Do you 'fork' your French bread...?!
Answers: ...before you put it in batter. I do, but my wife says it doesn't make a difference. French toast is what I'm talking about BTW.
Nope, it's already absorbent enough. Poking holes in it might make it fall apart.
you don't have to. Bread is absorbant enough already
Nope, no need to. French Toast works best w/ stale or slightly toasted (not brown) french bread, btw.
