The ultimate tomato sandwich, with jammy eggs & herby mayo
Sandwiches
The is a recipe for those times when you find the world’s best-looking tomato and you’re so excited to eat it, you don’t even have the patience to close your sandwich before taking a bite. It celebrates heavy-handed mayonnaise application, yolky dregs, and flaky salt. <br /> <br />A note on choosing an oil for your mayo: Neutral is my go-to because it never overpowers the herbs or tomatoes, but feel free to substitute in your favorite olive oil if you want to amp up the flavor even more. <br /> <br />If your emulsion breaks while preparing your herb mayo, stay cool! Grab another egg yolk and put it in a clean bowl, and beat it together with another teaspoon of lemon juice, and another teaspoon of room-temp water. Drop by drop, add your broken emulsion as you whisk. Once it comes together, continue to whisk as you stream in the rest of the broken emulsion. <br /> <br />You’ll have more herb mayo than you need for just one sandwich, which roughly translates to “a very compelling reason to buy another tomato tomorrow.” Maybe even go crazy—buy two.
