Our toaster died a couple of days ago. The new one ordered by MadameB arrived this afternoon. It has a bagel button.
I thought this was going to be about U-Roy

I like toasted pittas; give it a quick wetting, place in toaster, switch on, when popped out, cut one side and stuff it with mozzarella, tomato a drip of olive oil an a pinch of salt; yum. Or is it too Continental?
No Tau, it's not too continental.
It's heaven.
And butteries
Oh yes! Pity nowhere in the south of Oxfordshire sells them. My sister, who lives not a million miles away in Surrey, used to make them when she worked in the Bridge of Don Tesco.
Alas, none of my attempts to make any using her recipe have ever come out even close to looking or tasting like the real thing.
A buttery, or rowie, is an Aberdeen delicacy.
Imagine a flat, heavy, greasy, salty bread roll.
It's much greasier than a bagel, more like flattened croissant.
AA, I can recommend those from the Bakehouse in Crathie if you are passing through.
yumyum, the bagel button is for toasting one side more than the other.
Proper bagels should only be toasted if they are not fresh. This is the law. Obviously the crap supermarket ones don’t count.
Link please to magic bagel one side more than the other toaster.
