The Bauru sandwich was created in 1934 by Casimiro Pinto Neto, a law student at the University of São Francisco, in a traditional lunch counter called 'Ponto Chic' in São Paulo. He asked the cook to prepare a sandwich according to his specifications, and it became popular with his friends, who began ordering it as 'the Bauru' (his nickname). The dish reflects the diverse culinary influences of Brazil, combining European-style bread and cheese with South American ingredients.

The Bauru sandwich offers a harmonious blend of savory, tangy, and creamy flavors.
The roast beef provides a savory, meaty base. Melted mozzarella cheese adds a creamy, rich texture. Sliced tomatoes introduce a juicy, slightly acidic element that balances the richness. The pickled cucumber contributes a tangy, vinegary crunch that cuts through the other flavors, preventing the sandwich from being too heavy.

Bread Selection
Use a fresh French roll or a similar crusty bread roll that can hold the ingredients without becoming soggy.

Opt for high-quality mozzarella that melts well and has a good flavor. Some variations use other cheeses like provolone or prato.

Use freshly sliced roast beef for the best flavor and texture. Avoid pre-packaged, overly processed meats.
Pickled Cucumber Type
