My dear friends, it goes beyond hot dog and hamburger buns at picnics, Challah loaves on Friday nights, your five options at build-your-own sub sandwich shops, and bread sticks from pizza joints. In any given Swiss supermarket or bakery you can find rolls, buns, loaves, and pastries of all different shapes, sizes, colors, and ingredients – all complete with their very own name. In addition to The Queso Suizo Project, I'll be trying different loaves, pastries, and bread products in order to find my favorites.
By the way, if ever we’ve needed a good bread knife it’s now, as the lovely loaves never come pre-sliced. In San Diego, I had a $3 bread knife from Target that made its appearance a few times a year when I would bring home fresh bagels, or the occasional loaf from Bread & Cie for a special meal I was preparing. Here in Switzerland we have a sturdy Victorinox bread knife, which never actually gets put away.
