Perhaps one of my most favourite eats in the whole world. Simple. Classic. Satisfying.  But if you get the timing off, it ends up ALL wrong.

1. Toast 2 pieces of bread (preferably some sort of seeded loaf, however, multigrain and white are also suitable choices) to a golden brown colour.

2. Whilst bread is toasting, get margarine from fridge, butter knife from drawer, plate from plate cupboard and Craft Peanut Butter original from cupboard. Hint: If you buy the bigger jar of peanut butter you get more value for your buck. Also, it lasts longer because there’s more of it.

3. Make sure the knife is prepositioned in the margarine. Once you become pro, you’ll know EXACTLY how much to get on the knife to spread on both pieces of toast without having to go in for more and potentially uglify the margarine with multiple burnt crumbs.

4. When bread is suitably toasted, quickly remove from the toaster and place on the plate. Apply preprepared margarine liberally, spreading all the way to the edges. If it’s not glistening with melted margarine, apply more.

5. Add peanut butter. Try to make sure there are multiple pools of melted margarine and peanut butter mountains throughout the toast so as to keep each bite a surprise.

nb. For a slight twist, add IXL’s smooth Plum Jam.

Now THAT is what the Italians would call “good ciao”.
