Huge fan of good french toast and yours looks fantastic! Does stale bread work better than fresh bread or is it just a good alternative when you have stale bread to make french toast?

Please do send me your recipe, Lisa. Panzanella (for me) is one of those dishes that if it is good, I love it but if not I don't like it at all. One key is getting good tomatoes of course.

Jared, I think that stale bread DOES work a little better than fresh. Since the bread it so much drier it soaks up the egg/milk mixture better. Actually, french toast was invented BECAUSE of stale bread. As a way to use it up without waste.
