The Bauru is a savory and rich sandwich that combines the tanginess of pickles and tomato with the saltiness of ham and the melted creaminess of cheese. The combination provides a complex and satisfying flavor profile.
The dominant flavors are the saltiness from the ham and cheese, the acidity from the tomato and pickles, and the richness from the melted cheese. The bread provides a neutral base that soaks up the flavors. Some variations might include a slight buttery flavor depending on how the bread is prepared.

Bread Choice
French bread ('pão francês') is the traditional choice. The crusty exterior and soft interior provide the perfect texture contrast. Alternatively, a crusty roll can be used.
Cheese Melting
Ensure the cheese is fully melted and gooey. You can use a sandwich press or broiler to achieve this. The melted cheese is crucial for binding the ingredients together.
Tomato Freshness
Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor. Avoid using overly watery tomatoes, as they can make the sandwich soggy.
Authentic Cheese Blend
The original recipe supposedly used a blend of four cheeses: prato, mozzarella, provolone, and cheddar. Using this will create the most authentic taste.
