Ingredients
Tartines
- 120 gbaguette
- 30 gsalted butter, softened
- 40 gstrawberry jam
Instructions
- 1
Slice the baguette on a slight diagonal into 2 pieces of about 60 g each. For the best texture, use bread that is fresh but not hot, so the butter spreads cleanly without melting immediately.
- 2
Spread the softened salted butter evenly over the cut side of each piece, reaching all the way to the edges so every bite is seasoned and rich.
- 3
Spoon the strawberry jam over the butter and spread gently into an even layer. Serve immediately, open-faced, while the bread is still crisp on the outside and tender inside.

Notes
- •Let the butter sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes beforehand if needed; softened butter prevents tearing the bread.
- •Use a good-quality strawberry jam with a high fruit content for the most authentic flavor.
- •This is classic with coffee, tea, or hot chocolate at breakfast or as an afternoon snack.
