Jacques Pepin, who is known to his Bulgarian fans mainly for his culinary show, broadcast on Fiesta TV, has a book published in Bulgarian, which is often called the culinary bible. This is not surprising, because it offers extremely easy recipes, which, on the one hand, take minimal time to prepare, and even look too simple, and on the other - are really delicious.

That is why here we have decided to introduce you to 2 variants of toast, which Jacques Pepin offers in his book Every day with Jacques Pepin: Quick and tasty recipes:

Bread sticks with cheese

Necessary products: 5 slices of handmade country bread, 2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil, 2 tbsp. Parmesan, 1/2 tsp. red pepper, 1/2 tsp. ground cumin

Method of preparation: Choose a suitable tray in which you can toast the slices. It is good that they are cut to a thickness of not more than 1 cm, and the bread is slightly dry. Then cut the slices themselves lengthwise so that you get well-shaped bread sticks. Coat the pan with olive oil and arrange the sticks, pressing them lightly. You can also use a grill pan for this purpose, but it is important to give the bread time to absorb the olive oil on both sides.

In a bowl, mix all other products, and the Parmesan must be grated. Sprinkle this mixture on the bread sticks and bake until pink. They are a great addition to all kinds of soups, appetizers and main dishes. And the good thing is that they are a great way to use slightly dried bread, which can no longer be consumed with pleasure directly.
