Speaking of hipsters on the grape pizza thread elsewhere

A James Beard joint here in Nashville makes a tomato white bread and mayo parfait appetizer they charge a chunk for

Husk is the name

It’s so silly

I always think of The Emporers New Clothes

He was a very ignorant man (grew up as as street kid in the streets of NYC). He married a German woman whom he turned into one of the best cooks (especially of Italian food) that I’ve ever had the pleasure of sharing a table with.

I miss them both...I miss their cooking...

“Make sure them are Grainger County ‘maters.”

Why? The state with the most requested crop inside the US are from northern California with their sales more than from all the combined amount of sales from the rest of the country, and the largest sellers of tomatoes in the world come from China. (Before Trump brought them to their knees)

There is no protein in that sandwich. A BLT will do it. Or, take cold slices of cheddar or your favorite cheese and add them. No melt this time- the cold cheese provides a little bite and salt and protein but the thickly sliced tomato remains the star.

If you can’t digest bread, use stiff iceberg lettuce. I do. It’s very yummy. Especially when the ingredients are all fridge cold except the just picked in the sun tomatoes.

2 slices of mother’s fresh homemade bread.
One beefsteak tomato, just picked and sliced- Hellman’s Mayonnaise on bread with tomato- salt.

Eat, smile, sigh...

Like this article, thauthor is nothing more than a squishy white bread sandwich. May look good on the outside, but nothing in the middle.
