Step 1
Place a skillet over medium heat and let it warm for 2 minutes. The pan is ready when a drop of water sizzles on contact.
Step 2
Add the 2 slices of bread to the dry skillet in a single layer. Toast for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crisp.
Step 3
Flip the bread with tongs and toast the other side for 2-3 minutes until equally golden and firm to the touch.
Step 4
Transfer the hot toast to a plate. Immediately spread the 2 tbsp butter over the hot surface so it melts into the bread.
Step 5
Serve right away while the toast is warm and the butter is melted. Enjoy plain or with a sprinkle of salt if desired.
