There is just one time of yr to make tomato sandwiches. It’s when tomatoes are completely good. You’ve obtained a summertime window, however don’t strive making one come February. It’s too unhappy for each you and the tomatoes. There are stunning tomatoes all over the place I look proper now, and so I made my first tomato sandwich of the summer time. Right here’s what it regarded like.
Constructing a Good Tomato Sandwich
I like making tomato sandwiches on nearly any type of bread. This one went on a country baguette, however a delicate white bread, or oatmeal bread are additionally welcome choices. Or a slab of focaccia sliced in half. The tomato-mayo mixture is traditional right here, and that’s what I went for right this moment (pictured under). However different instances, goat cheese, or a smear of labneh, make a pleasant creamy first layer. The second layer is zucchini butter. It additionally goes on each side of the bread. When you don’t have zucchini butter, a little bit of pesto, or one thing artichoke-centric are good alternate options. This artichoke dip is a implausible unfold, or leftover pan-fried artichokes. I mainly raid the fridge for choices.
For the subsequent layer (pictured under), there may be ripe avocado topped with contemporary basil on one facet, and slices of heirloom tomatoes on the opposite. A drizzle of excellent olive oil over the tomatoes isn’t unwelcome, even higher if it’s a chili olive oil, or a citrus one.
To double down on tomato taste, I’ve additionally been recognized to do a skinny layer of roasted cherry tomatoes rather than the zucchini butter, after which go forward with the contemporary heirloom tomatoes. So so so good.
