Buddha Your Bread With Profit
The official anointed Queen of Butter, is Paula Deen, who refers to butter as buddha. Breakfast, lunch and dinner isn’t the same without good tasting buddha. It has the inherent ability to make certain foods taste so much better, especially bread, vegetables and seafood.
Recessions are good for the imagination. They shove us into nooks and crannies we never would have dreamed of visiting. It forces many of us to reach beyond the normal every day minutiae. Recessions are the best time to reevaluate and look closer at the microscopic details, like the butter you serve.
Imaginative chefs create an assortment of flavored butters to garnish their platters,using herbs and spices like: Saffron, pink peppercorn, dill, fennel see, chive flower, parsley and nigella seed as shown in the clip.
Gabi, and I frequented a small family owned cafe, that was having a real bear of a problem, surviving the bad economy. The owners son had taken a backpacking trip through France and Germany over the past summer. When his parents asked him what he liked most, he said, “the bread and butter”.
They now serve (standing room only) the most tantalizing fresh baked bread every conceived. Available in rough, rustic, flour dusted loaves. They affectionately call their sandwiches, Pheasant Loaves. Each is jammed with fresh crunchy vegetables, warm gooey cheeses and thinly sliced meats.
What stands out as the heavy hitting favorite in this success story are; the wooden bowls, filled with an assortment of soft creamy winter Belgian flavored butters, embossed with various designs. No wonder the place is always packed full.
It took rethinking their bread and butter to re-synergize their business. Not only are they surviving, they are flourishing!
