Since French toast is all about the bread, the kind of bread you use makes a difference. You want a firm bread, one that can stand up to a good soak in egg and milk; but it shouldn't be so firm that frying makes it tough. My absolute favorite bread for french toast is a good quality brioche wether homade or store bought. To make French toast: Let the loaf get a bit stale before using it for French toast. Or cut six 3/4" to 1"-thick slices of fresh brioche and let them sit, uncovered, for several hours.
