Step 2
Then you're going to need 3 plates.
Put on the first: milk at room temperature.
On the second plate: a beaten egg, if you are going to do many torrijas you'll maybe need 2 eggs.
And on the thrid: put in some white sugar and cinnamon (If you like a lot the taste of the cinnamon, you can put one stick on the milk plate, but if you just want a touch of taste, put some with the sugar an mix it). -
