  • Like the classic combo of peanut butter and jelly, finally, the great taste asparagus meets the sweet goodness of pimento! What? That’s not a thing? Hmm, I severally misread the room here. At any rate this light little tea sandwich from Salads and Sandwiches of 1917 has spared us the use of canned asparagus. And for that I am immensely grateful.

      Yes... But l see lemon zest added as a topper too often. Lemon zest should be added to the mayo or butter the night before, to let the flavors meld.
