# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It comes together faster than ordering takeout, with nothing but a toaster and a skillet standing between you and lunch.
  • The crispy-creamy-fresh balance hits different when you've made it yourself and know exactly what went into each bite.
  • One sandwich feeds two people generously, or one person very happily with room for seconds.
02 -
  • Day-old bread toasts without falling apart, so if you've got time, buy your bread a day early instead of rushing to the bakery counter five minutes before lunch.
  • Cocktail sticks aren't optional if you're serving this to anyone else—they're the difference between a beautiful meal and a frustrating mess.
03 -
  • Buy turkey from the deli counter and have them slice it fresh instead of grabbing pre-packaged; the texture difference is honestly night-and-day different.
  • Keep your tomato at room temperature instead of cold—cold tomato is mealy and sad, but warm tomato from the counter adds juice and actual tomato flavor to every layer it touches.
