A delightful sandwich featuring fresh tomatoes and herbs, perfect for a quick and satisfying lunch.
Slice the tomatoes into even slices.
Use a sharp knife to ensure clean cuts and prevent squishing the tomatoes.
Chop the chives finely.
For a finer chop, bunch the chives together tightly before cutting.
Spread the softened butter evenly on one side of each slice of bread.
Ensure the butter is at room temperature for easy spreading.
Layer the tomato slices and chopped chives on two slices of the buttered bread.
Arrange the tomatoes slightly overlapping for even coverage.
Top with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side down.
Press gently to secure the sandwich without squishing the filling.
Cut each sandwich diagonally and serve immediately.
Diagonal cuts make the sandwiches easier to handle and more visually appealing.
