Ingredients
- 3 large heirloom tomatoes thinly sliced
- Kosher salt & Flake salt
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 6 ounces 1½ cups finely grated extra-sharp white Cheddar cheese
- 8 slices toasted sourdough country bread, or one large baguette
Method
- Arrange the heirloom tomato slices on a plate and season with kosher salt. Let them sit for 10 to 15 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, grated Cheddar, and 2 generous pinches of kosher salt until smooth.
- Toast the bread or baguette until golden and crisp.
- While still warm, spread a generous layer of the Cheddar mixture over your toasted bread.
- Top with the heirloom tomatoes. Finish with flaky sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and fresh basil, if desired. Serve immediately.
