We had our first red tomatoes this week! Thank you, God, for letting the sun out to make them nice and ripe.
I always try my first tomato with a few speckles of sea salt. Next, I could think of no better way to honor the tomato than with my version of a BLAT. I baked some brioche (which didn’t really work out since I pushed the dough a day to long because I was tired…oh well) then whipped some mayo with lemon, chopped tarragon, and cracked pepper. I used pancetta (or italian bacon) instead of regular.
My favorite sandwich…ever.

this looks so delicious, it makes me wish i was with you right NOW. and it also makes me hungry.
Me too :( Bummed we r going to miss you guys in SF.
I love blt with avocado!!! Definitely the best sandwich ever. I hope you realize how fortunate you are to live in San Diego – our tomatoes are about 10 inches tall with no harvest until at least August!
I’m sorry, Anne :( This is the first year I planted them on time (February) and I even beat the farmer’s markets this year. I hope yours go crazy soon!!
This is lovely.
I’m ordering that from your kitchen on the next visit. :)
The BLT is one of my very favorites so it would be lovely to share with you :)
