I bought the most gorgeous bunch of basil yesterday and made this sandwich, which was amazing: on a Portuguese roll, lightly butter one side and cover with seeded tomatoes. Salt and pepper, add mayo, and coat with chopped basil. Then add a layer of cucumbers, and smash the whole thing down a little so the stuff doesn't pour out. The flavor profile, as we say in TV cookery, was spot-on!

  1. Doesn't it all depend on the tomato? Sounds summer perfect, if your tomato is right.

  2. The tomato was not right, but it worked anyway. Someone who likes mayo less than I do, which granted, is everyone, might have to find the right tomato.
