Taking full advantage of tomato season. This was a textbook BLT, with just the slightest curveball — a couple leaves of basil in addition to the lettuce.
Anyone got any other suggestions for a good BLT? My old favorite (Daily Provisions) stopped offering it on their menu, inexplicably.
That looks like a fine tomato sandwich, but even though there’s lettuce and bacon somewhere in there as well, I wouldn’t say this qualifies as a textbook BLT. The beauty of a BLT (much like a Negroni) is in the even proportions of the ingredients, where no single element overpowers the other, but together they are greater than the sum of the parts.

seeing folks calling for more bacon. imo during peak tomato season, this is an appropriate amount of bacon (assuming you’re using stellar tomatoes). bacon’s there only as a seasoning of sorts. in non-peak, you gotta dial up the bacon cuz the tomatoes can’t be the star anymore
