The Cold Brown is the cold version of the Hot Brown. It too was originally served in the Brown Tea Room. It was known as the second sandwich and was tasty and lighter then the Hot Brown. The Cold Brown is an open faced concoction called a sandwich but better eaten with a fork.
1 piece of thin sliced rye bread
Bibb lettuce
1 slice of roasted chicken or turkey, about 1/4 inch thick and large enough to cover the bread
1 large slice of ripe, peeled tomato, 1/2 inch thick
1 hard boiled egg, sliced in rounds
Thousand Island Dressing
Place the bread on a large plate. Cover with lettuce. Lay the meat on the lettuce and the tomato on the meat. Arrange the egg slices around the tomato and use more lettuce as garnish around the edges. Serve with plenty of dressing on the side, to be poured on the top.
Serves one.

My favorite rye bread is Jewish rye, lovely rye taste but light! The old Jewish deli that closed down a couple years ago made the very best... Sure do miss Saul's cooking.
