Savoury toast is a Tasmanian snack food made by covering a slice of bread with a prepared topping, commonly consisting of beaten egg, bacon pieces, diced onion, cheese, ketchup and worcestershire sauce, and then baking.
Recipes date from at least the 1860s.
The dish commonly consists of bread topped with a combination of beaten egg, bacon pieces, diced onion, cheese, ketchup and worcestershire sauce. The mix of ingredients is spread onto the bread slices before it is baked in a moderate oven. Savoury toast is often sold in local bakeries and is also commonly made at home. Despite its popularity in Tasmania, it is not a well known food item on the Australian mainland. [1] [2]
Recipes for savoury toast vary and can be found in early copies of Australian newspapers and women's magazines. The earliest dated recipe can be found from 1865 in the Australasian Post weekly periodical in the Ladies' Column and describes a similar recipe utilising fewer ingredients. [3] [1] The first known mention of savoury toast from a Tasmanian publication was in the Launceston Examiner on the 14 March 1885. [4] [1] Despite early recipes for savoury toast being found nationwide, it was only in Tasmania where the recipe remained popular and evolved to today's version of the recipe. [1]
Hungarian or Magyar cuisine is the cuisine characteristic of the nation of Hungary, and its primary ethnic group, the Magyars. Hungarian cuisine has been described as being the spiciest cuisine in Europe. This can largely be attributed to the use of their piquant native spice, Hungarian paprika, in many of their dishes. A mild version of the spice, Hungarian sweet paprika, is commonly used as an alternative. Traditional Hungarian dishes are primarily based on meats, seasonal vegetables, fruits, bread, and dairy products.

Czech cuisine has both influenced and been influenced by the cuisines of surrounding countries and nations. Many of the cakes and pastries that are popular in Central Europe originated within the Czech lands. Contemporary Czech cuisine is more meat-based than in previous periods; the current abundance of farmable meat has enriched its presence in regional cuisine. Traditionally, meat has been reserved for once-weekly consumption, typically on weekends.
The bacon and egg pie is a savoury pie consisting of a crust containing bacon, egg and sometimes onion, mushrooms, bell peppers, peas, tomato, fresh herbs and cheese. It is popular in New Zealand. However, bacon and egg pie originated during the Middle Ages in Cornwall and is still a popular pie cooked in Cornish homes today. For many Cornish people, a bacon and egg pie is more of a taste of home than the famous Cornish pasty. Bacon and egg pie may be served with ketchup, which can be combined with Worcestershire sauce and drizzled over the filling before the pie is baked and some versions have a rising agent such as baking powder mixed into the egg to make a fluffier filling.
