Toast - Page 9

Toast refers to bread that has been browned on the surface by exposure to heat, typically through a toaster or an oven. The process of toasting involves the Maillard reaction, which enhances the flavor, texture, and color of the bread. Toast is commonly served as a breakfast item or a side to various meals, often accompanied by toppings such as butter, jam, or spreads. The term can also refer to the act of making a toast, which is a custom involving raising a glass and expressing good wishes or sentiments, often during a celebratory occasion.
