A fitting name. Pain doré is best made with older, and softer bread. Rekka's family recipe differs in the way that it requires dairy and eggs. Substituting eggs in recipes is never easy, but not impossible. We've tried many alternatives over the years and finally ended up using chickpea flour. It's an ingredient we already use in many recipes to mimic eggs, like in <a href='okonomiyaki.html'>okonomiyaki</a> and <a href='scrambled_chickpea_flour.html'>scrambled chickpea flour</a>. When heated, chickpea flour thickens and crisps up while keeping its yellow color. We don't recommend using bananas as an egg replacer in this recipe. It's what we used to do, but it imparts too much flavor and makes it too sweet.</p><p><b>Oven version :</b> Preheat oven at 180°C. Grease a baking dish, add sliced bread and pour the left-over milk mixture overtop. Cook until golden.</p><p><b>Bread :</b> In this recipe I used some spelt sandwich bread.</p><p><b>Milk : </b> Adding vinegar to plant milk makes it curdle and taste sour, it's a simple trick used to make dairy-free buttermilk. In recipes, buttermilk adds sharpness and flavor. You're welcome to use other types of plant milk, but some varieties (like rice milk) won't curdle as well.</p></div><dl class='ingredients'><h3>dipping mix</h3><dt><a href='apple_cider_vinegar.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/apple_cider_vinegar.png'/><b>apple cider vinegar</b></a><u>15 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='soy_milk.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/soy_milk.png'/><b>soy milk</b></a><u>125 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='chickpea_flour.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/chickpea_flour.png'/><b>chickpea flour</b></a><u>20 g</u></dt><dt><a href='nutritional_yeast.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/nutritional_yeast.png'/><b>nutritional yeast</b></a><u>4 g</u></dt><dt><a href='natural_brown_sugar.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/natural_brown_sugar.png'/><b>natural brown sugar</b></a><u>15 g</u></dt><dt><a href='vegan_butter.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/vegan_butter.png'/><b>vegan butter</b></a><u>15 ml</u></dt><dt><a href='fresh_bread.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/fresh_bread.png'/><b>fresh bread</b></a><u>4 slices</u></dt><dt><a href='maple_syrup.html'><img src='../media/ingredients/maple_syrup.png'/><b>maple syrup</b></a><u>to taste</u></dt></dl><ul class='instructions'><li>In a bowl, add <i>15 ml (1 tsp)</i> of <a href='apple_cider_vinegar.html'>apple cider vinegar</a> to <i>125 ml (1/2 cup)</i> of <a href='soy_milk.html'>soy milk</a>.
