And if you still have room for dessert, consider salting your sweet items.
“Salt to sweet baking is like bay leaves in cooking,” says Lungi Mhlanga, the owner of a doughnut cafe, Treats Club London. “You’re not supposed to know it’s there, but when it’s not, you notice.” Increasingly, baking recipes include salt to foreground flavors of chocolate or vanilla, and Mhlanga considers it essential for French toast, to prevent it from becoming cloyingly sweet.
It may seem counterintuitive, says King, but a sprinkle of sea salt on many desserts creates “little explosions” of heightened flavor. Anything with chocolate, caramel, meringue, nuts, and even some fruits can become a valid target!
