My most memorable tomato sandwich came about using beefsteak tomatoes
from the backyard, still warm "Rustic Italian Cheese Bread" from the
bread machine and (lots of) butter. I've posted that bread recipe here
a few times. No mayo and most definitely no Miracle Wimp.

Since I've got the china clippers I've had scant use for toothpicks
except as mini-skewers. And I have metal skewers that I use for most
purposes so I let them run out and not get replaced until this project
came along.

If I'm raising them myself the season can stretch well into September
and maybe October depending on the date of the fist "killing" frost.

What I grabbed was Wasabi Furikake. I use it on French fries and a few
other things. I keep, also, white miso and Shichimi Togarashi (rather
like Furikake but "zippier")

Here's a recipe from a TeeVee channel that used to was a lot better
than it is today. It's for restaurant sized quantities of stuff but it
looks interesting. If I ever have occasion to cater/cook for a large
group I might give it a go.

commercial deep fryer to 350ºF/175ºC.
Dust the chicken thighs in the flour-garlic powder

brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let the fried chicken drain in
the deep fryer basket for 2 to 3 minutes.
Submerge the fried chicken in the sweet and savory sauce
for 2 minutes. Pull the chicken out of the sauce and cut
in half.
Served the fried chicken with steamed white rice and
tuna macaroni salad on a bed of fresh avocado. Garnish
with green onions, homemade garlic aioli and a confetti

peppa watah in a ramekin.
