Slices of sourdough, thinly coated with butter, "fried" on both sides until golden brown. I typically have them with homemade pâte, guava cheese, or some random jam. Or sometimes I spread olive oil and a pinch of salt while still in the skillet, it depends on my mood.

RULES (updated 01/22/25)
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling. To be concise, disrespect is defined by escalation.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible. You won't be punished for trying.
- Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There's a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it's vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a "controversial" message for it to be allowed.
- Keep it clean and SFW: No illegal content or anything gross and inappropriate. A rule of thumb is if a recording of a conversation put on another platform would get someone a COPPA violation response, that exact exchange should be avoided when possible.
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc. The chart redirected to above applies to spam material as well, which is one of the reasons its wording is vague, as it applies to a few things. Again, a "spammy" message must be applicable to four purple answers before it's allowed.
- Respect privacy as well as truth: Don’t ask for or share any personal information or slander anyone. A rule of thumb is if something is enough info to go by that it "would be a copyright violation if the info was art" as another group put it, or that it alone can be used to narrow someone down to 150 physical humans (Dunbar's Number) or less, it's considered an excess breach of privacy. Slander is defined by intentional utilitarian misguidance at the expense (positive or negative) of a sentient entity. This often links back to or mixes with rule one, which implies, for example, that even something that is true can still amount to what slander is trying to achieve, and that will be looked down upon.

Oh niiiiice. You really take it up a notch
If I'm sick or hungover I like it burnt with butter rubbed on it afterwards. Normally though I'll eat it toasted just enough so that it crunches and top with apricot jam or some preserves.
Buttered with beans on.
Or buttered with eggs on.
Sourdough nicely toasted with butter and sour cherry preserves
Butter and raspberry jam. Butter, Vegemite and a slice of cheese is nice too for a more savoury snack
If it's just in terms of toasting then it should be just on the edge where the texture becomes slightly crunchy, but still retaining moisture inside. The taste should not retain any dougheyness. The surface should have small patches of browning visible but the majority of it still be white.
Regardless of topping or treatment, I prefer using a skillet for even heat distribution.
A single crispy not burnt toast (artisanal bread). Jam (strawberry, apricot or blueberries have my preference). Tea but coffee is OK too.
Medium to dark toast. Butter salt and pepper.
Crispy enough to give it a texture, soft enough to soak in eggs or syrup.
I like to have one piece, very lightly toasted. Half marge and half topping, either marmite or jam.
