This simple yet perfect tomato sandwich features a perfectly ripe tomato, your favorite mayonnaise, and lightly toasted bread. The magic is in the simplicity, making it a delightful summer meal.
1. Lightly toast your bread (sourdough recommended). For a little extra flavor, rub a garlic clove over the toast while it’s still warm.
2. Slice your tomatoes into thicker slices, then pat them dry. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
3. Dress up your mayo if you’d like — mix in salt, pepper, lemon juice, and a touch of grated garlic — but plain mayo works beautifully too.
4. Spread a good layer of mayo on your bread, top with those gorgeous tomatoes, and enjoy immediately.
