For the best flavor, use tomatoes that are at their peak ripeness and at room temperature. Refrigerating tomatoes diminishes their flavor. A high-quality mayonnaise, such as Duke's, makes a significant difference in the overall taste of the sandwich. Experiment with different types of bread to find your favorite combination. Sourdough or brioche can add a delightful twist. If you like a little heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the mayonnaise.
