CLASSIC BLT SANDWICH



Classic BLT Sandwich image

This is a sandwich that I crave a lot. I am just posting it because I couldn't find it posted already on the Zaar...I couldn't believe that! My ex-DH wondered how I make these, so I decided to post it and send him the recipe. Nothing fancy -- just the real, simple, unabridged version. UPDATE: After reading Peg629's review, I have tried it that way, with one slice of toast spread with yellow mustard, and I must say it really, really makes an exceptional BLT! Such a subtle difference, yet genuinely makes a superior BLT, in my opinion! (Thank you Peg629 for that awesome suggestion!)

Time 15m

Yield 4 sandwiches, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 lb bacon (approx. 12 slices)
8 slices white bread
8 leaves iceberg lettuce, fresh and full
8 slices of ripened tomatoes
8 tablespoons Hellmann's mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Cook bacon until crispy, then drain on paper towels.
  • Toast the 8 slices of bread.
  • Spread 1 tablespoon mayo on each slice of toasted bread. (More or less, to taste).
  • Add 1 slice of lettuce to 4 pieces of mayo-spreaded toast.
  • Add 2 slices of tomato on top of lettuce.
  • Arrange 3 slices of bacon evenly on top of tomato. (Break bacon slices in half to fit, if needed.).
  • Add 1 slice of lettuce on top of bacon.
  • Put the remaining 4 pieces of mayo-spreaded toast on top to finish the sandwiches.
  • Enjoy!
  • NOTE: I also like to butter the toast slices before adding the mayo -- higher in fat, but tastier, in my opinion!

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes. The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful they will be. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have no blemishes.
  • Slice the tomatoes thinly. This will help them to cook evenly and will also make them easier to eat.
  • Use high-quality bacon. Thick-cut bacon is best because it has more flavor and will hold up better when cooked.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy. This will help to render out the fat and make the bacon more flavorful.
  • Use fresh lettuce. Crunchy romaine lettuce or butterhead lettuce are both good choices for a BLT.
  • Toast the bread. Toasting the bread will help it to stand up to the other ingredients and will also give it a nice flavor.
  • Spread mayonnaise on the bread. Mayonnaise will help to hold the sandwich together and will also add a creamy flavor.
  • Layer the ingredients. Start with the lettuce, then add the tomato, bacon, and finally the top piece of bread.
  • Cut the sandwich in half and serve. A BLT is best served immediately, while the bread is still crispy and the bacon is still warm.

Conclusion:

The BLT is a classic American sandwich that is loved by people of all ages. It is a simple sandwich to make, but it is packed with flavor. The combination of crispy bacon, ripe tomatoes, fresh lettuce, and creamy mayonnaise is irresistible. Whether you are making it for a quick lunch or a casual dinner, a BLT is sure to please everyone at the table.
