Method

toast4 min
well past golden
the bread darker than habit suggests — it is about to carry a heavy wet topping, and pale toast folds under it in a minute; the deep toast is the plate as much as the food
mash3 min
in a bowl, coarse, seasoned as you go
avocado + lime + salt with a fork, stopped while real pieces remain — the seasoning happens here because salt on top of avocado sits on top; salt mashed through it seasons every bite, and the lime is holding the green as much as adding flavor
top2 min
avocado, then oil, then heat
the mash spread to the crust's edge, olive oil in a thin thread, chili flakes scattered — edge-to-edge coverage is the difference between avocado toast and toast near avocado; eat immediately, this dish has a ten-minute lifespan and everyone knows it
