I’ve been obsessed with the game Among Us. I love playing it and watching streams of it for hours on end trying to learn all the best tips and tricks. For those who are unfamiliar, Among Us is an online multiplayer social deduction game in which the objective is to win as either a “Crewmate” or “Imposter.” In the game, you’re an astronaut in a spaceship. If you’re a crewmate, your goal is to complete the spaceship maintenance tasks while trying to figure out who the imposters are. If you’re an imposter, your goal is to kill all the crewmates. If you like games like Mafia and Avalon, you’re probably going to love Among Us. Also, you can play with up to 10 people which makes it a great social game, perfect for the pandemic.
This blog post is inspired by my favorite Among Us streamer, Disguised Toast, who’s one of the best, if not, the best Among Us player. As a crewmate, this guy can sus out the imposters from a mile away, and, as an imposter, convince the crewmates using good logic to talk his way out of a situation. I love watching his videos and streams to learn about his “big brain” plays. So in honor of my favorite streamer, I want to share with you all a couple of my favorite toast recipes!
Ingredients: Smoked salmon, avocado, chives, S&P
Instructions: Mash up the avocado with S&P. Toast your bread of choice (I used sourdough for all these recipes). Spread the mashed avocado onto the bread. Pile on the smoked salmon. Garnish with chopped chives.
Ingredients: Bosc pear, goat cheese, honey, arugula, S&P
Instructions: Mix the goat cheese and honey. Slice up the pear. Toast the bread. Smear the goat cheese mixture onto the bread. Pile on some arugula. Top it with the sliced pear and S&P.
Ingredients: Black garlic*, prosciutto
Instructions: Mash up a few cloves of the black garlic until it turns into a smooth paste. Toast the bread. Spread the black garlic paste onto the bread. Pile on the prosciutto.
*Black garlic is garlic that’s been aged in a heat- and humidity-controlled environment anywhere from three weeks to two months. The process gets rid of the sharpness that’s found in fresh garlic and gives the garlic a sweet taste that resembles balsamic vinegar.
Ingredients: Mozzarella, tomato, basil, truffle oil, S&P
Instructions: Slice the mozzarella and tomato into 1/4 to 1/2 inch in thickness. Toast the bread. S&P the sliced mozzarella and tomato. Place the cheese and tomato slices onto the bread, alternating the slices. Chiffonade a few basil leaves. Sprinkle the basil on top. Finish with a drizzle of truffle oil.
Ingredients: Goat cheese, honey, prosciutto, cantaloupe, balsamic reduction, S&P
Instructions: Mix the goat cheese and honey. Slice up the cantaloupe. Toast the bread. Smear the goat cheese mixture onto the bread. Pile on the prosciutto. Arrange the cantaloupe slices on top of the prosciutto. Finish with S&P and a drizzle of balsamic reduction.
