Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 1/2 cup whole milk
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for garnish
• 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard powder
• 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (I used Tabasco)
• freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• 1 large garlic clove, crushed with the side of a knife
• dash salt
• medium-size loaf of good-quality bread, cut 1-inch thick
• butter, for frying
• flat-leaf parsley or chives, for garnish
• 3 egg yolks
• 1/4 teaspoon dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 dash hot sauce
• 1/2 cup butter

Directions

• Turn your oven on to the warm setting (170 F). Set a cooling rack over a cookie sheet and place in the oven.
• Add eggs, milk, cream, Parmesan, mustard powder, hot sauce, black pepper, garlic, and salt to a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour liquid into a pie plate or an 8x8 dish. Rinse out your blender immediately.
• Slice the bread into 1-inch pieces.
• Heat a griddle or a large skillet to medium-high heat.
• Soak the bread in the egg mixture 1-2 minutes each side.
• Grease the griddle or pan with butter.
• Fry each piece of bread for about 2-3 minutes, until golden brown. Flip and cook the other side for 1-2 minutes or until browned. Continue with all the bread pieces, replenishing butter as necessary.
• Place each finished piece of toast on the cooling rack in the oven.
• In the rinsed-out blender, add the egg yolks, dijon mustard, lemon juice, and hot sauce. Blend until smooth. (Its not very much liquid, so I tipped the blender on its side to help it blend up. See photos.)
• In a small bowl in the microwave, melt butter completely so that its very hot.
• Open the top spout of your blender. Turn the blender on low and pour in the hot butter. It should thicken immediately.
• Immediately pour the sauce into a measuring cup or bowl. Place the bowl into another bowl of very hot water. (You want to keep the sauce hot, but if you microwave it, it will curdle.)
• Pour the sauce over each serving. Whisk the sauce if it starts to separate.
• Top each French toast with fresh herbs and extra Parmesan.
