Mornings
These days, I have toast (our homemade no knead bread) with chocolate for breakfast. I’ve only encontered this stuff in Denmark – thin wafers of chocolate meant for bread. Foreigners tend to scoff at this (”it falls off!”), but the secret is either lots of butter and fresh, white rolls, or like this, on toast. Because then the chocolate melts into the bread. Every morning I think I’ll have something less sugary, but I end up with this.
Thin wafers of chocolate meant for bread? Fabulous! No scoffing here, just jealousy.
I agree with Denise.
Best memories from my childhood: bread and chocolate, even though we didn’t have the thin kind -this involved lots of milk teeth missing through the children!
You bet I would do the same breakfast if only they seel them here!
That sounds delicious and strange, I have never seen it before! My boys eat toast with nugatti nearly every morning although I stick more to jam for the moment
*the missing teeth were due to the hardness of the chocolate bars not because of too much sugar eaten.
I remember my disbelieving delight during my first french exchange trip when breakfast was alternately chocolate spread on bread, chunks of chocolate sandwiched between plain biscuits or squashed between a slice of warm baguette where it would slowly melt. All dipped into bowls of drinking chocolate. Bliss! Your version has me wondering how I can recreate it..
So happy to her about your chocolate memories! Victoria, I used to eat Nugatti too, when I was a kid, but haven’t it forever because I am allergic to nuts now. Nostalgia! Nutella is practically the same and we proudly have a Ferrari Nutella glass in our cupboard, collected on our first trip to Italy together back in the day. That French breakfast sounds deliciously over-the-top…. I’m such a hypocrite for eating this when I don’t allow my kids to have it except om weekends. Ah well.
