Probably, there is not a single person who, at least once in his life, would not take a piece of bread and smear it with butter, or put some food on top - sausage, cheese, vegetables, herbs, etc. imagination is limitless and depends on taste preferences, regional traditions and the imagination of the culinary specialist. Sandwiches are widespread because they are compact, quick to prepare and easy to carry. The "public life" of a sandwich, so to speak, is very diverse. Sandwiches are often mentioned in literary works.

• Making large sandwiches has become a popular pastime in many places. Thus, the largest sandwich in the world, 720 m long, was made by seven hundred residents of the Lebanese village of Kfar Katra. The record-breaking sandwich with an area of ​​14 square meters was made at the Nizhny Novgorod fair in honor of the 780th anniversary of the city. The sandwich consisted of sausage, cheese and vegetables and, where without it, of six types of "Ryaba" mayonnaise.
• Supermarket chain Tesco has come up with musical sandwiches that play Christmas melodies after being taken out of their packaging.
• There are fabulously expensive sandwiches. Made with Wagyu marbled beef, foie gras, truffle butter mayonnaise, Brie cheese, arugula, pepper and cherry tomatoes, it was priced at £ 85. The bite-sized cheese sandwich, which featured the image of the Virgin Mary, was auctioned for $ 28,000, and the sandwich was 10 years old at the time of sale. A sandwich was developed for the American army that does not spoil for 3 years.
• Scientists also did not stand aside and showed not a dozen interest in such a phenomenon as the physics of the fall of a sandwich (microdynamics). The widespread belief among the masses that a sandwich almost always drops butter down, they tried to test it experimentally. As a result of the test, it turned out that, if thrown perfectly vertically, a sandwich with butter can with an equal probability of falling on one or the other side. But if you push a sandwich off the edge of the table, which is typical for a typical household situation, then it usually makes only one turn in the air and falls oil down.
• Physicist Robert Matthews won the 1996 Shnobel Prize for The Falling Sandwich, Murphy's Law and the World Constants, dedicated to a thorough study of Murphy's Law and especially to test its consequence: the sandwich is more likely to fall butter down.He even derived a formula to substantiate his arguments, in which there were such variables: angular velocity of rotation, critical overhang, table height, angle of separation from the table, width of a sandwich, half the length of a sandwich, etc.
• Where did you come to teach us to spread something delicious on a slice of bread or put something on top of it?
• There are many versions, from anecdotal to very plausible.
• One by one, the sandwich was invented by the Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus in April 1520 during the siege of the Olsztyn castle by the knights of the Teutonic Order. In the castle, which was commanded by Copernicus, an epidemic broke out. Moreover, according to the observation of Copernicus, those who ate bread were sick. The scientist suggested that bread becomes infected when it comes into contact with objects, especially the floor. He suggested spreading the bread with butter, on which, after an unsuccessful fall to the floor, it was easy to see dirt. In this case, the oil could be removed and thereby render the bread harmless. Copernicus also studied medicine before his research in physics.
• Many fairly authoritative scientists believe that the sandwiches were invented by the Jews, who, during the celebration of Easter, coated bread with butter, and sometimes honey. This Jewish sandwich was then humanely sacrificed as a substitute for the sacrificial animal. If we go further, then products made from matzo cakes, stacked on top of each other, stuffed with ground nuts and fruits, can be considered the prototype of the modern sandwich.
• But the very word Butterbrot came to us in the 19th century from the German language. After the death of Copernicus, the German pharmacist Buttenadt began to actively spread this culinary technique, so the whole of Europe learned about the sandwich. The sandwich was immediately widespread in the Scandinavian countries: in Denmark, for example, the sandwich was called the king of cuisine. There were over 700 different types of sandwiches, ranging from a simple slice of bread and butter to a multi-storey sandwich called Andersen's Favorite Sandwich.
• The sandwich came to our native land in the vastness of the USSR thanks to the Kremlin long-liver Anastas Mikoyan, who even before the war brought from the USA several sandwich machines and the great secret of making hamburgers, which after the war was transformed into a traditional sandwich. (Eh, now I would like to taste the Mikoyan sausages of those times!)
• So the sandwich, one might say, lived, is alive and will live on the festive table, and in the brake of a working person, and in a schoolboy's portfolio, not to mention its property of being a wonderful snack for a variety of drinks in drinking establishments.
• In any case, the culinary dish named by the German word Butterbrot can be considered an ancient and perfect culinary invention of mankind, which has become a world heritage.
• A lot of German words came into the Russian language during the reign of Peter the Great.
• We spread our sandwich with German soft blue cheese and topped the top with sausage and slices of spicy pickled gherkins. The favorite combination in a tourist environment.

Note

In Germany, bread is the basis of any breakfast and dinner. The counters of German bakeries are amazing, here you can see a huge number of varieties of flour products: from black grain bread to almond pretzels. And all this because a slice of bread or a bun is the basis of the breakfast and dinner of the Germans. Salad is usually served only for dinner.
And where there is good bread, there is immediately the temptation to spread it with butter or soft cheese, put a piece of juicy ham or sausage on it. Mmmm ....
So spelled out in the name itself, bread and butter, that is, Butterbrot, has been enriched with delicious additions.
I wonder how the German Wikipedia says about the Russian tradition.
I give a free translation.
In Russian, the word "Sandwich" is borrowed from German, but this word means tasty, spread or topped bread, and not necessarily butter. By this word Russian cuisine means its own culinary tradition.
(In der russischen Sprache hat das Wort Butterbrot als Lehnwort aus dem Deutschen Eingang gefunden, siehe Deutsche Wörter im Russischen. Dort versteht man unter einem sandwich (buterbrod) ein geschmackvoll belegtes Brot, wobei nadden hierfür Buterbrod mit Butter “ist im russischen kein Pleonasmus). Die russische Küche hat unter diesem Begriff eine eigene Sandwich-Tradition hervorgebracht.)

Irina! what a herring you have!

[eye]

eye, Tanya, we used to sell low-calorie yoghurt butter, it was not sweet, but slightly sour, that's what they serve here. That oil was German or Swedish, I don't remember, I really liked it. I think it's just the addition of yogurt. Or maybe not from cream, but from yogurt they make fat, or maybe even a spread, but pure butter tastes good, melts well and without sediment.

I know that in Ukraine they make French yoghurt butter spread.

[eye]

eye, I found it, I really liked it!

preparation of material 5+ awesomely designed!

Thank you!!!
She herself was glad when everything turned out so well: the newspaper caught my eye, I liked the expression on the face of the Russian tsar with German roots, as if he looked at the sanctions with condemnation. We made a sandwich in the room (and itching to put out the recipe), and we managed to find the material. Only now I would correct the mistakes, it makes me so annoying when the text is with mistakes. (I didn't notice - in hotels, as always, they save money ..)

the main point! do not worry
