This is our ideal tomato sandwich. Everyone has their own preferences, and we have ours! Crusty sourdough toast,
thick heirloom tomato slices, mayonnaise, chives, and flaky salt to maximize the flavor of those wonderful summer tomatoes!
Because it's been so hot this summer, I've been craving tomato-based meals at all hours.
It simply feels like the best and most effortless way to "cook," and I wish I could live on them alone since they're so simple.
The other day, I cooked a tomato sauce with chopped heirloom tomatoes from my parents' garden, two entire garlic cloves, olive oil, and a couple hefty pinches of salt.
It almost burned on the stove because I was distracted by something else, but there was just enough heat for the sugars in the tomato to thicken and do their work.
I mixed it with some spaghetti and pasta water, then garnished with some basil, and it was delicious.
After blogging about the tomato sandwich, we cooked a lovely panzanella salad with the trimmings. We'd cut a bunch of tomatoes and tossed in the leftover slices, along with the leftover chives, some garden shallots, and a sliced peach.
