Just a Cheese & Tomato toastie really.
October 26, 2014
It’s the best cheese/tomato toasty evah!
(but basically “just” a cheese & tom tostie)
it’s all about the ingredients – fresh, authentic, real.
Ingredients:
Tasty, ripe, Italian tomatoes (not those anaemic, cheap, Dutch glasshouse things)
(home-bake) Ciabatta bread.
A good Pesto Genovaise (Basil, Pine-nuts, Garlic, Olive oil)
Buffalo Mozzarella cheese, real, local, from Buffalos!
S&P
That’s it!
Cut the half-baked Ciabatta in half – to fit your grill – and again, through the middle to make our “sandwich”.
Spread the Pesto over one of the halves, like butter.
Layer of sliced tomatoes on top of that.
Rip/tear the (Buffalo) Mozzarella into pieces, don’t slice it into those Pizza-rounds.
Divide over the tomatoes, season with S&P, and drizzle with Olive Oil.
Bung it under the contact-grill – this will cook the Ciabatta as if it had been through the oven, and at the same time soften the tomatoes and melt the cheese.
Like you ordered a Cheese’n’ tomato toastie in Southern Italy!!
Eet smakelijk!
