Bread & Butter

[Tableauz]

Tonight we had homemade cassoulet with freshly baked bread. I spread butter on mine to dip in the stew - it was delicious! DH was appalled as apparently dipping bread should not have butter on. WIBU??

Butter+bread+stew= yummy in my tummy. YANBU.

It is probably terribly uncouth, but I absolutely would

Cassoulet and crusty bread is my favourite, so next time you make it, I'll come round and share it with you instead of your Dh.

YANBU. DH is as wrong as raisins on this one.

Sounds amazing!

Butter makes most things taste better, ime.

No. You are a grown woman so able to make a decision for yourself about whether you have butter or not.

YANBU.

What kind of weirdo dips with dry bread? The butter is an essential element required to glue sauce to bread.

It was my DP who introduced me to the loveliness of putting butter on my dipping bread a few years ago. I am now struggling to give it up in my attempt to lose a few pounds.

I dip buttered bread into soft boiled eggs if that helps!

Your stew+your bread= your rules
As long as you were not 1) dipping your bread in his stew (oh er sounds a bit rude!) 2) Insisting that buttered bread was the ONLY way, then YANBU.

Butter? What extravagance!

I wouldn’t, but I really really wouldn’t care if you did

I am a weirdo, I dip with dry bread. Just don't like the taste of butter in a sauce or gravy.

However I sometimes put butter on the bread I use to clean the mix of salad cream and olive oil left after I finish a salad, if there is no butter it doesn't bother me. I also make sandwiches without butter.

Nope...yanbu! ! No other way !!

Definitely with butter. Your DH is very wrong.

HTH

YANBU

Definitely with butter, not worth dipping otherwise!

Yes I dip with butter. Same with soup.
Dh doesn’t though he’s never judged for doing it.

*judged me

And just to say, my husband does not put butter on his bread for dipping either. Nor does he put butter in sandwiches. He eats cheese sandwiches with no pickle/relish/butter

I never eat bread without butter, the only exception might be pitta bread & hummus but even then I slather those in butter most of the time too.

What's "cassoulet'' ?
Is it a different word for casserole, or are they different things ?

Missing point of thread too, but can you post roughly your cassoulet recipe?

None of his business.

Crack on
