Tomato sandwich with anchovy aioli
Sandwiches
Okay, it's not quite tomato season here yet, but thinking about aioli, I couldn't resist going and buying some early season tomatoes to make into a sandwich schmeared all over with aioli because I really think it's one of the best uses there is for it. The traditional tomato-mayo combination is gussied up just slightly by adding anchovies and capers. I got the idea of adding anchovies to aioli from a friend who adds anchovies with her mayo all the time on sandwiches. It's delicious. (She has also been known to drizzle cod liver oil over her tomato and avocado sandwiches. This, I find much less appealing.) <br />I like a higher amount of olive oil in my aioli because I like the intensity of the flavor, especially with all the other flavors here. You can really use any neutral tasting oil in the place of canola oil but just please don't use regular vegetable oil (corn or soy) because it's really not good for you. - fiveandspice
