- 2 to 3 heirloom tomatoes
- Pinch kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon good-quality mayonnaise (Duke's, Hellmann's, Best Foods)
- 1 loaf white bread

Slice the tomatoes and arrange them on a few bed of paper towels. Sprinkle the tomatoes with a few pinches of salt and allow to sit and drain for 5 to 7 minutes.
Meanwhile, smother the slices of bread with mayonnaise. Both sides!
Place a few slices of tomatoes on the bread and sprinkle with a bit of black pepper. Top with another slice of bread and cut in half. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches.
