Cheese bread is a fragrant and hearty dish from Russian cuisine, where simple ingredients turn into a true gastronomic masterpiece. Crispy rye bread soaked in butter with pepper and herbs becomes tender inside, while the gooey melted cheese gives it a rich flavor. This bread is perfect for a cozy family dinner or a friendly gathering where you want to share something delicious and unusual. It can be served as an appetizer with soups, baked meats, or simply enjoyed on its own. Cheese slices hidden between the squares of bread melt to create appetizing stretchy threads – this effect makes the dish special and unforgettable.
