Cooking question! How does one go about toasting only one side of a slice of bread, anyway?
Maybe run it under the broiler?

Um... under the grill?
Is this one of those American things? Do Americans not have grills?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Use a broiler, and don't turn the bread.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Emily: broiler. (of course a multi xpost.)
Nilly, your post (and the fact that it's finally stopped here) makes me feel kind of bad about all the bitching I was doing about the rain here for the past week and a half.

Emily, why would you want to toast only one side of bread? Not that I would know how, I'm just curious.
I'm so glad you asked. I'm attempting to make Welsh Rabbit! The recipe I have calls for toasting one side, then putting the stuff on the other side, then broiling.
Steph (um, and everybody), is this the oven type broiler? Is there any way to do this (or, for that matter, the later broiling part) in a toaster oven? vw is not here, or I would not need to ask.

Americans may. I even may, but cooking is like a foreign country to me.

Your tag here.

Well, some toasters have a bagel setting that will do that. If you don't have such a device, the broiler in the oven works, or if you have a gas stove you can hold the bread over the flames using any number of MacGyver devices.

Don't most toaster ovens have a broil setting (as opposed to toast)? Just broil the one side.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Personally, I'd ignore it and toast both sides. Or you could use a grill pan. The toaster oven's broiler should work fine, too.

See, it's the first rain we've had here for a little ever, maybe seven months or something, so you're totally entitled for a completely different response than mine. I mean, had I had any laundry hanging outside, I would have probably responded completely differently myself.
Welsh Rabbit!
Will it make you happier or sadder if I ask what exactly that is?
Is there a way, on your toaster over, to heat up only one part of t, only the top or only the bottom?
