Add to Shopping List

Instructions

  1. Cut the tomato into meaty, 1/2-inch thick slices. We like to use a serrated knife. Depending on the size of your bread slices, you'll need 1-2 large slices per sandwich.
  2. Generously spread one side of each of the bread slices with mayonnaise.
  3. Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper and layer them onto one of the mayo-spread bread slices in a single layer, or slightly overlapped.
  4. Top with the second slice of bread, mayo side down.
  5. Slice sandwich in half and serve immediately.

Notes

  • *Preferably, Duke's, Blue Plate, Hellmann's/Best, or homemade mayonnaise.
  • **I like to use Arnold Country White, Pepperidge Farm Farmhouse White, or Captain John Derst's.
  • The blog post above contains a lot of information about variations in traditions for sandwich assembly, tips for choosing the best tomatoes, etc.  I encourage you to give the article a read.
