The Bauru sandwich was created in 1937 at the Ponto Chic restaurant in São Paulo, Brazil, by Casimiro Pinto Neto, a law student nicknamed 'Bauru' because he was from the city of Bauru in São Paulo state. He challenged the restaurant's cook to create a sandwich according to his specific preferences, and it quickly became a popular request, eventually being added to the menu as the 'Bauru'.

The Bauru sandwich is a savory and tangy delight. The combination of melted cheese, salty roast beef, acidic tomatoes and pickled cucumber, and aromatic oregano creates a balanced and satisfying flavor profile.
The sandwich features the creamy, melted cheese, traditionally mozzarella but sometimes other cheeses are used, providing a rich and comforting base. The roast beef contributes a savory and meaty depth. The sliced tomatoes offer a fresh, juicy acidity that cuts through the richness. The pickled cucumber (usually dill pickles) adds a tangy and crunchy element. A sprinkle of oregano introduces a herbaceous and slightly peppery aroma that ties all the flavors together.

Cheese Selection
While mozzarella is traditional, experiment with other melting cheeses like provolone or even a mild cheddar for different flavor profiles.
Bread Choice
A French roll or a crusty white bread is ideal for holding the ingredients without becoming soggy.
Pressing the Sandwich
Lightly pressing the sandwich after assembly helps to meld the flavors and create a cohesive eating experience. However, avoid pressing too hard to prevent the bread from becoming flat.
Pickle Quality
Use good quality dill pickles for the best flavor. Bread and butter pickles are not a suitable substitute.
