      Thick slice of fresh bread, toasted on both sides. Then split in half across the whole slice with a sharp or serrated knife and the insides that were soft are then toasted. Basically half slice thickness toasted VERY crispy but not too brown. Delicious with melted butter or dip. My personal favorite after bible leaf toast.

          Basically an unsliced loaf with very thin slices cut into it except at the base, so the slices are left joined together at the bottom. Then the loaf gets brushed with butter and the whole thing baked in the oven till golden and crispy. The slices curl and open up like the pages of a book. You rip off a slice at a time and nibble or dip them. It’s amazing how many slices one can eat - it looks so much when it first comes out of the oven, but half an hour later there’s only the base left. And burned fingers. I prefer this to potato chips actually.
