Danish toast

Danish toast
Due to their geographical location, the Nordic countries have relatively low average annual temperatures and a very cold winter climate. As a result, people living there consume much more calories in their diet than in France and Italy.

Due to the high calories, I rarely cook the food there. It's winter now, so you might as well try to make a common toast bread in Denmark and present it to everyone, so that friends can understand the calories contained in these breads and have a choice when purchasing.

Because the big fried spoon is a trial, haha! Maybe it might go wrong! Please forgive me for doing this, and don't follow my prescription, haha!
