I’ve been working through traditional dishes from around the world for a little over two years now, with more than 400 dishes in, always trying to stay as close as possible to authentic ingredients and techniques.
This time, I made Buterbródy, specifically the Russian-style open sandwich. It’s one of my favourite things to eat and one of the simplest dishes I know: proof that there’s often very little better than good bread and butter.
These were made on my fiancé’s homemade sourdough, topped with an assortment of classics: a cream cheese-mayo spread with sliced cucumber and tomato; tomato and sour-cream cream cheese with smoked salmon; and pickled herring with mayonnaise, egg, and pickled cornichons. Everything had plenty of fresh dill.
Simple, comforting, and endlessly adaptable, this is a dish I could happily eat any day.
I’ll be posting more traditional dishes. As always, recommendations are very welcome.
