Tomato Sandwich
The humble Tomato Sandwich is a simple yet iconic dish that celebrates peak-season tomatoes. With just a few basic ingredients—juicy, ripe tomatoes, soft bread, mayonnaise, and a sprinkle of salt—this sandwich captures the essence of summer in every bite. Originating in the American South, the Tomato Sandwich is all about letting the tomatoes shine. You can enjoy the classic version or elevate it with toppings like fresh basil, furikake, or cracked black pepper. I’m absolutely hooked on Jules take on them!
