On Day 6 of Tomato Sandwich Week, we’re trying J. Kenji López-Alt’s Tomato, Mayo, and Toast (TMT) sandwich. This version featured homemade mayonnaise infused with lemon, Dijon, and garlic. The simple yet delicious open-faced toast consists of quality bread, mayo, tomato wedges, and salt.
Tomato Sandwich Week wouldn’t be complete without an entry from the king of Tomato Mayo Toast: Dan Pelosi! Dan’s guide offers a more choose-your-own-adventure approach – it provides everything you need to create the tomato toast of your dreams.
Eric Kim’s Furikake Tomato Sandwich reimagines a summer staple with Japanese flair. Toasted bread, creamy mayo, and thick heirloom tomato slices are elevated by umami-rich furikake seasoning. This fusion creation amplifies the tomato’s natural flavor, resulting in an intensely satisfying sandwich perfect for August’s peak tomato season.
Day 3 of Tomato Sandwich Week featuring Smitten Kitchen’s elevated take on a classic. This version combines toasted sourdough, mayo, golden-brown fried provolone, and juicy tomatoes. While typically a tomato sandwich purist, I couldn’t resist this delicious twist, resulting in a flavorful summer treat.
Andy Baraghani’s Tomato Toast reinvents the classic sandwich with grated garlic-infused mayo and lemon juice. Served open-faced on toasted country bread, it’s topped with juicy tomatoes and a flavorful mix of sesame seeds, sea salt, pepper, lemon zest, olive oil, and Aleppo pepper. A simple yet sophisticated summer treat.
Tomato season is here, and we’re celebrating with a week of mouthwatering tomato sandwich recipes! Kicking off with Ina Garten’s Tomato Sandwich with Basil Mayonnaise, featuring garlic-basil-lemon infused mayo on rustic bread topped with ripe heirloom tomatoes.
Tomato season is FINALLY here! When I’m not enjoying my daily tomato sandwich (get ready for next week!), I like to mix things up with another late summer favorite: panzanella. This year, a new contender for my favorite has entered the ring: Country Panzanella with Watermelon Dressing!
Ina introduced me to the magical bread salad that is panzanella, and my summers have never been the same. Ina reworks her classic version of toasted bread cubes, red onions, tomatoes, pepper and cucumber tossed garlic/Dijon vinaigrette and swaps out the basil and capers for the even better (IMHO) feta and Kalamata olives.
