FRENCH Toast,,, i tell u why people call you see Some people claim that this dish was called "German toast" in the U!.S!. before World War I and was changed to "French toast" because of anti-German sentiment!. Indeed, a popular cookbook from 1918 does refer to it by the name "German toast!." However, the term "French toast" can be found in print in the U!.S!. as early as 1871!. The Oxford English Dictionary cites usages of "French toast" in English as early as 1660 (toasted bread with wine, orange juice, and sugar), and cites an egg-based recipe of the same name from 1882!. It has also been called "American toast" in the U!.S!., where there is a story that it was invented in 1724 by a man named Joseph French in a roadside tavern near Albany, New York!.[dubious – discuss]
also notably: In France, French toast, and in Belgium (and DRC Africa) is called pain perdu, or “lost bread,” since it is a way to reclaim stale, “lost,” bread: hard bread is softened by dipping in a mixture of milk and eggs, then fried!.
According to research provided by the International House of Pancakes, French toast isn’t necessarily French in origin; it is likely that the recipe dates back to Medieval times and may have been a logical “invention” by different peoples, akin to battering and frying any food!. A similar dish called suppe dorate was popular in England during the Middle Ages, although the English might have learned it from the French Normans, who had a dish called tostees dorees!. However, according to IHOP, the first written mention of the dish comes from the court of Henry V of England (1413-1422)!.
FRENCH FRIES - The straightforward explanation of the term "French fried potatoes" is that it means "potatoes fried in the French manner": the verb fry can mean either sautéing or deep-fat frying, while French 'frire' unambiguously means deep frying!. Thomas Jefferson, famous for serving French dishes, referred to fried potatoes in this way!.
The Belgians are noted for claiming that French fries are Belgian in origin, but have presented no definitive evidence; the French have also been cited as possible creators of the dish, though in France they are often thought of as Belgian; the Belgians are the heaviest consumers of French fries!.[citation needed] The Spanish claim[citation needed] that the dish was invented in Spain, the first European country in which the potato appeared via the New World colonies, and then spread to Belgium which was then under Spanish rule!. Whether they were invented in Belgium or Spain, they have become Belgium's national dish, making Belgians their "symbolic" creators in Europe!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
