I'm not proud: if it's for me I use my fingers; if it's for somebody else, I get sighted assistance. We keep the butter softened too, which helps, but I still get a finger in there. Sometimes I have better luck if I lay the slice of bread in the palm of one hand and spread with the other; that way the palm of the hand can feel if I'm hitting all the spots. But sometimes that doesn't work too well either.

I think we all need to find the technique that works for us. sugar ‘Faith is seeing light with your heart when all your eyes see is darkness.’ ~Blessed, Sugar -----Original Message----- From: Lanore via Cookinginthedark [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, November 28, 2015 8:25 AM To: [email protected]; Parham Doustdar Subject: Re: [CnD] Question: spreading butter, jam, or cheese on a piece of bread I use the edge of a knife and move it back and forth and go too the sides.

Hi, This has been bugging me for a while, so I wonder if anyone has developed their own personalized technique for this. When I want to spread something on a piece of bread, I face two problems: 1. Without using my hands, I'm not sure how much of the butter, cheese or whatever I've picked with my knife, or in some cases, my spoon. 2. Even though I have tried putting whatever I want to spread in the center of the bread and spreading it to the sides (I've read this technique somewhere on the net), the cheese or butter doesn't get spread evenly. How do you guys solve these two problems? Thanks! _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
