What Have You Done To My Kaya Toast?
For years, I had been experimenting with different types of methods and ways to craft out the best kaya toast. I can finally say that this is probably the best version. Probably. Kaya toast has been a staple in Singapore's brunch; it is the Singaporean's peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Kaya + butter were spread on thin slices of toasted bread and enjoyed over a cup of coffee.
This is the vision I finally settled on. I drew inspirations from Sqirl, Los Angeles and Chef Studio. If you have not check out Sqirl yet, please do so. Their jam and toast are simply the best despite recent allegations. Also, check out Chef Studio YouTube channel for lots of brilliant chefy recipes.
You get the crispy-mayo-toasted bottom, soft bite with light, fluffy, buttery, savory, dense and sweet topping; the coffee caviar cut thru' all that richness perfectly with an amazing aftertaste. Every mouthful is loaded with different types of textures as well. This is indeed a flavor bomb. I am literally drooling thinking about this. You have to give this recipe a try!

Tarako & Mayonnaise Toast Stread Tarako & Mayonnaise Toast Stread
I saw sliced baguettes topped with tarako at a bakery sold as "Tara-Mayo."I don't really like baguettes, so I decided to try making it myself with sliced bread.I recommend spreading a decent amount of the sauce thickly on the bread, as opposed to a thin layer.Toast it until the surface of the taiko becomes crispy, so that it breaks when you bite into it.This goes amazingly with beer!Use cheap tarako.

Ripe Banana and Cheese Toast Ripe Banana and Cheese Toast
I wanted to use some bananas that had suddenly gotten ripe in a tasty way, so I tried combining it with my favorite cheese on toast.The key is the saltiness of the grated cheese.The salty-sweetness is the reason this is so tasty, so put on lots of grated cheese. You can mash the banana with a fork so that it lays flat if you like. It might be easier to put on the grated cheese. Recipe by Hassaku daifuku
