One of the absolute simplest pleasures in the world of food is a really well made (and seasoned) bread and butter. If I'm out to eat and the menu has an $8 specialty bread-and-butter service, I'm automatically in. Some of my most wonderful food memories center around that perfect combination.
Whether you're out to eat and enjoying an expertly crafted roll and a compound butter pairing or you're having a simple breakfast of plush, perfect bagels and some rich, salted butter, there's an innate enjoyment that comes along with that, from taste to texture. It's offers a satisfaction that not many other foods meet.
