In this book, the author presents Teresa of \u00c1vila as a figure full of contrasts. She was a Spanish mystic known for her ecstasies and visions, but also a woman of action who reformed the Carmelite Order and founded a new branch. She had little formal education and wrote only out of obedience, yet she is counted among the great writers of the Spanish Golden Age. Her visions made her a suspect of heresy, and yet she became the first woman to be proclaimed a Doctor of the Church. The text describes her as warm, witty, and remarkably courageous. It mentions a prelate so impressed that he deemed her worthy of wearing a beard, and the English poet Richard Crashaw, who saw in her both the eagle and the dove.<\/p><p>The author goes on to explain that several dishes are traditionally associated with her memory, including St. Th\u00e9r\u00e8se\u2019s bread and egg yolks, which she may have cooked herself. Even as the head of her order, she would help out in the kitchen. To nuns from noble families who were reluctant to learn, she is said to have replied, \u201cThe Lord is also to be found among the cooking pots!\u201d Since her order abstained from meat, the sisters had to use their imagination to make bread and eggs\u2014their staple foods\u2014appetizing.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2ab6492 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2ab6492\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Saint Teresa's Bread (Pan de Santa Teresa)<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-010ca5d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"010ca5d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong><em>Serves 4 to 6<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6761740d elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6761740d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_tablet&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>A close cousin of French toast, this dish is served for breakfast or brunch and has a flavor and texture all its own.<\/p><p><strong>Ingredients:<\/strong><\/p><ul><li>500 ml milk<\/li><li>40 g sugar (about 3 tablespoons)<\/li><li>1 cinnamon stick<\/li><li>Zest of 1 large lemon<\/li><li>12 slices of Italian bread or baguette, slightly stale, 1.5 to 2 cm thick<\/li><li>3 eggs (and a few more if needed)<\/li><li>1 pinch of salt<\/li><li>Cinnamon sugar, for sprinkling<\/li><li>Olive oil, for frying<br\/><br\/><\/li><\/ul><p><strong>Preparation:<\/strong><\/p><ol><li>In a saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, cinnamon stick, and lemon zest.
