Meanings
- The action of making a toast (celebratory call to drink).
- The heating of oak panels used to make wine barrels.
-
The process by which something, such as bread, is toasted.
You only have a grill and space for 2 pieces of bread under it. So it takes 4 toastings to do 3 slices on both sides. Or does it? Can you toast 3 pieces of bread on both sides in less than 4 toastings?
2011, Johnny Ball, Ball of Confusion: Puzzles, Problems and Perplexing Posers, page 129:
