Old-Fashioned 
Buttermilk Syrup
 
1/2 Cup butter
1 1/2 Cup sugar
2 Tablespoon light corn syrup
3/4 Cup buttermilk
2 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon  baking soda
 
Melt butter in a saucepan.  Add remaining ingredients and simmer over medium low heat for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently.  Serve warm.  Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.  Makes 3 cups. 

 

It's not just for breakfast any more.  As Donna Kelly tells us,  "French toast is derived from the original French recipe "pain perdu" or lost bread.  
 
It was an ingenious way to use the stale bread and waste nothing".  This book shows us how to incorporate this favorite dish for all meals - deliciously.  Her  French Twist Casserole,  and Tomato Basil Monte Cristos are wonderful examples of what can be done with bread and a twist.   These are recipes the entire family will enjoy.   

Donna also includes a section on syrups and sauces and her "Old- Fashioned Buttermilk Syrup" proved to be a winner at my house and will be used for many breakfasts to come.  It is a great addition to waffles, or "French Toast".  This book is great for anyone who loves French Toast, or just needs  new ideas to spice up a variety of meals.
