I like a regular slice; and I soak my bread in it a bit rather than just
giving it a quick dip in the egg-milk-or-juice blend. I like a custardy
texture to the final product.

I can't find the recipe I posted, must have been 1999 or so, but I soak it
overnight with egg and orange juice. Talk about "custardy"

Do you bake it or put it on a griddle? I do a griddle.

My grandmother's cast iron griddle on the stove top.

Perhaps the griddle is rectangular.

I use a rectangular electric skillet. I can fit six slices
in at once, which is exactly the right amount for us.

Since the question was "bake or griddle", I think any
stovetop hardware could be considered a griddle in
answering.

Mine is cast iron and round. It's a large flat surface.
