Ingredients

1 tsp (5g) Vegemite — Brewer’s yeast extract, and one of the densest B-vitamin sources on any shelf — a teaspoon carries a substantial share of a day’s folate, thiamine, riboflavin and niacin. It is also extremely salty, which is why a teaspoon is the dose.
2 slices (70g) Wholemeal Bread — Toasted, so the butter melts into it before the Vegemite goes on.
2 tsp (12g) Butter — Not optional. Butter first, thickly, then Vegemite thinly on top of it — this is the entire technique.

Method

Toast the bread.
Butter it generously while it is hot enough to melt in.
Scrape the Vegemite over thinly. If it looks like enough, it is too much.
