  • Needless to say, butter-and-cheese sandwiches qualify not just as a quick dish but as a very quick one. They're so easy and simple to make that even a child can manage — in fact, this is one of the first dishes you can use to introduce kids to cooking. The most important, fundamental thing in these uncomplicated butter-and-cheese sandwiches is the quality and freshness of the ingredients, which is what the whole flavor of the finished sandwiches comes down to. It's best to use fresh bread that isn't falling apart or overly crumbly. Dark, white, whole-grain, baguette — it doesn't matter, as long as it suits your taste. Pre-sliced sandwich bread works well here. The butter should of course be natural, good-quality, and fresh (not rancid or dried out), and not straight from the freezer. The same goes for choosing the cheese: pick a natural hard cheese rather than a cheese product, fresh and with a flavor you enjoy. So, with all the ingredients on hand, the assembly itself takes just a few minutes. Cut the bread into slices about 5 mm thick and spread a layer of butter on each. Spread it evenly across the surface using a butter knife — one with serrated notches, or a regular dull knife that isn't too narrow. Cut the cheese into slices about 2 mm thick and lay them over the butter. You can garnish the sandwich with a sprig of fresh herbs to taste. Serve butter-and-cheese sandwiches right after assembling, so the cheese doesn't dry out and the butter keeps its proper firmness.
