Recipe of the French toast of the restaurant Riv'k
Ingredients:
350g of flour
150ml of warm milk
120g of butter at room temperature
2 egg yolks + 1 for gilding
80g of sugar
12g fresh yeast
1 teaspoon of salt
Butter, half salt and sugar for cooking at the end
Preparation:
Dissolve the yeast in a little warm milk.
In the bowl of a food processor, pour the flour, sugar, butter, two egg yolks, milk and the milk + yeast mixture. Start kneading for one minute and then add the salt.
Form a ball, cover with a damp cloth and leave to rise until the dough doubles in volume.
Deaerate the dough, cut it into 8 equal parts, form small balls and place in a cake tin. Leave to rise for 30 minutes in the oven when cold.
Remove the brioche from the oven and preheat it to 180°C.
Brown the top of the brioche with the egg yolk and bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Allow to cool and then remove from the mould.
Cut a piece of thick brioche. Soak it in a cream/egg mixture.
In a frying pan, melt a generous piece of butter with a little sugar. Put the soaked brioche in the pan and caramelize it until it becomes well caramelized. Let it rest for 2/3 minutes in the hot pan and serve with a spoonful of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream in summer.
