Quick Tip
The secret to a perfect tea sandwich isn't fancy ingredients; it's adherence to a basic framework. Start with thinly sliced
bread, use just enough mayonnaise (a light coating on each slice of bread) to prevent sogginess, and exercise restraint when
adding the filling (it's a tea sandwich, not a sub).

FRESH PICK
Cranberries
High in vitamin C, these hard, tart berries are grown in bogs in colder regions of North America and Europe. They’re almost
always eaten cooked, as in the classic Thanksgiving relish.
