Notes

For the best results, ensure your butter is at room temperature so it spreads easily on the bread. If you like your sandwich extra crispy, you can lightly toast the bread slices before assembling the sandwich. Feel free to experiment with different fillings like tomatoes or pickles for added flavor.
