(Ulysses, Chapter 8: Lestrygonians)
Sliced soda bread
Thick slab of Gorgonzola cheese
Pungent mustard
Sliced tomatoes
Butter lettuce leaves
Unsalted butter
Fresh ground pepper
Butter the bread, slather with mustard, layer with lettuce, tomato, add a thick slab of Gorgonzola cheese and sprinkle with pepper. Don’t skimp on the mustard. Bloom didn’t. “Mr. Bloom cut his sandwich into slender strips…He studded under each lifted strip yellow blobs.”
