THE WORLD'S BEST B L T SANDWICH



The World's Best B L T Sandwich image

So simple, and yet so many subtle differences transform "good" to "world's best." the way a sandwich is assembled is key to how good it tastes. A gread sandwich is never dry (too bready). I pull out and discard all the soft white centers from baguettes, leaving two cano-shaped halves. This hollowed out bread is then packed full and doused with a generous splash of "house" dressing. Closing one of these sandwiches is like shutting an overpacked suitcase!

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 12 finger sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 slices maple bacon
8 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
3 tablespoons capers in brine, drained and chopped
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
2 tablespoons honey mustard
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 slices pumpernickel swirl bread
12 ounces sliced smoked salmon
1 small red onion, sliced very thinly
1 to 2 small Roma tomatoes, very thinly sliced into rounds
Baby arugula, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Evenly space the bacon on a baking sheet lined with a wire rack and bake until crispy, 15 to 18 minutes. Drain the bacon on paper towels, reserving the bacon fat from the pan. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Once cooled, finely mince the bacon.
  • For the caper spread: In a bowl, combine the cream cheese, capers, chives and honey mustard, and season with salt and pepper. With a rubber spatula, mix all the ingredients until combined. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  • For the sandwich build: Cut the crusts from the bread. Brush slices on one side with the reserved bacon fat and transfer to the oven to warm through, about 5 minutes. Smear the fat side of four slices with some caper spread. Layer with 1 1/2 ounces of smoked salmon, some red onion, tomato, minced bacon and arugula. Top with another slice of bread and cut each sandwich into thirds, to make finger sandwiches.

Tips:

  • For a classic BLT sandwich, use ripe tomatoes, crispy lettuce, and thick-cut bacon. If you want your sandwich to be a bit more gourmet, try adding avocado, blue cheese, or a fried egg.
  • The type of bread you use can also make a big difference. A hearty, crusty bread like sourdough or rye will hold up well to the fillings. If you prefer a lighter sandwich, try using a white or wheat bread.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of bacon. Pancetta, prosciutto, and Canadian bacon can all make for delicious BLT sandwiches.
  • If you're using a tomato that's particularly juicy, slice it thinly so that it doesn't make your sandwich soggy. You can also pat the tomato slices dry with a paper towel before assembling your sandwich.
  • Make sure your lettuce is crisp and dry. Wilted lettuce will make your sandwich soggy.
  • Use a good quality mayonnaise. A cheap mayonnaise can ruin the flavor of your sandwich.
  • If you're making your sandwich ahead of time, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.

Conclusion:

The BLT sandwich is a classic for a reason. It's simple, delicious, and satisfying. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect BLT sandwich every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy lunch or dinner, give the BLT sandwich a try. You won't be disappointed.
