C'est du pain rassis.
Stale bread is better for French toast. Fresh bread makes the finished product too mushy. Alisa
In France, Belgium, New Orleans, Newfoundland and the Congo, French toast is called pain perdu, which means "lost bread" in French. It is called "lost bread" because it is a way to reclaim stale or "lost" bread.
It is a drier type of bread and there for the moister in it is less to begin with.
Technically yes but the term "french Toast" was developed in America French toast is no more French, than fortune cookies are Chinese. The recipe dates back to medieval times. The English might have learned it from the French, and called it "french toast", but in France the name is "Pain perdu" (lost bread). Originally it was a dish made by poor people, to eat the stale bread.
i think stale bread is not necessary but fresh bread
One can throw stale bread out in the garbage.
popcorn that loses its flavor and tastes blah. also french fries and bread
Yes, leaving bread uncovered overnight is a common practice for making French toast. This allows the bread to become slightly stale, which helps it absorb the egg mixture better without becoming too soggy. Stale bread also adds a nice texture and flavor to the final dish. Just ensure the bread is kept in a cool, dry place to prevent it from going stale too quickly.

You can transform stale bread into a delicious dish by making bread pudding, croutons, or breadcrumbs.
No. That substance is called mold.
