(NC) Recreating our favourite dishes and meals at home has been essential for getting through this unprecedented year, and brunch is no exception. This approach can help you save money while taking social distancing precautions during the pandemic.
One key element in any brunch spread is the artisanal toast. Though it sounds lavish, anyone can easily make restaurant-worthy toast at a fraction of the cost in their own kitchen.
“Despite the fact that people are eating in restaurants less frequently this year, artisanal toast is still a hugely popular food trend in Canada,” says Abbey Sharp, culinary expert and registered dietitian. “Make your own toast masterpieces with wholesome, naturally fermented bread from Stonemill Bakehouse. Whether it’s the classic avocado topping or something new you’re experimenting with, there is simply no limit to just how creative you can get with your toast!”
