Melba Toast - cooking recipe

Ingredients

Melba Toast
8 slices white bread

Preparation

Preheat the broiler to high and toast the bread lightly on both sides.
Cut off the crusts and then, holding the toast flat, slide a sharp knife between the toasted edges to split the bread so that you now have 8 slices that are toasted only on one side.
Cut each piece into 4 triangles, and then toast under the broiler, untoasted sides uppermost, until golden and the edges curl.
Serve warm with soup.
Alternatively, make Melba toast earlier in the day, and warm for a short time in the oven at 170\u00b0C/ 325\u00b0F/ Gas Mark 3 before serving.
