I don't normally feature sandwiches on this blog, but I simply cannot ignore this one. It's too good! The method is dead simple, but perhaps I can include a tip or two you may not have thought of to elevate your BLT to the next level!
Ingredients:
Bacon, best quality but thinly sliced
Tomatoes (ideally fresh from your garden)
Romaine lettuce
Mayo
Emmental cheese
Asiago bread
salt, pepper, butter
Method:
In a large sheet pan with a wire rack, lay your bacon out. In a preheated 400 degree F oven, bake for 15 minutes or until the bacon is crispy.
Slice your tomatoes and salt and pepper them. The salt is non-negotiable despite the saltiness from the bacon- the salt brings the flavor out of the tomato. Do not skip!
Slice avocados.
Rip lettuce to desired sizes for bread.
Freshly slice bread and butter one side. In a large pan over medium high head, toast the buttered side of each bread slice. Lay a slice of Emmental cheese on one of the bread slices, and allow to melt.
Time to construct your sandwich!
On each untested side of the bread, apply your desired amount of mayo. Cover each slice with lettuce (this prevent the bread from getting soggy from the tomato. Lay out 3 slices of tomato, 2 slices of bacon, and 3 slices of avocado. Close the sandwich. Enjoy the perfect summer dinner.
