How to Make a Classic Southern Tomato Sandwich

Spread Duke's Mayonnaise heavily onto two slices of soft white bread, making sure to cover all the way to the edges.

Sprinkle fresh ground pepper on the mayonnaise-covered bread.

Trim any blemishes from the heirloom Cherokee purple tomato with a sharp knife.

Cut a thick slice of the tomato, ensuring it's not too thin to prevent falling out of the sandwich.

Lightly salt the thick slice of tomato.

Place the tomato slice on one piece of the mayonnaise-covered bread.

Top with the second slice of bread, also covered in mayonnaise.

Cut the sandwich in half to serve.
