ReplyDeletewell... that recipe is for milky torrijas... not the real one, or the most common. This one uses white wine diluted in water, and honey. The process is similar, soak the bread in the wine, after in beaten egg and fry. After you have to soak them in the honey (also diluted in hot water).
ReplyDeleteThis is the MOST common recipe and classical. In fact i'm eating 3 of them now jajajaja of course i live in Spain.
