A BLT that thinks outside the box
Few sandwiches are more widely enjoyed than BLTs. When hosting
parties, hosts ot en look for foods that will appeal to their guests,
which makes BLTs a great appetizer option. h ose hosts who want to
take a chance on a less traditional “BLT” might want to consider the
following recipe for “Inside-Out BLTs” from Bob Blumer’s “Surreal
Gourmet Bites” (Chronicle Books). Unlike traditional BLTs, this
recipe includes cheese and some additional unique properties guests
are sure to love.
Add more oil if necessary for subsequent batches.
To assemble, line up 12 fried tomato slices. Season with salt and
pepper, then top each with 1 cheese slice, a mound of bacon shrapnel
and 2 arugula leaves. Cover with a second fried tomato slice. Secure
with a toothpick. Let cool for a minute before serving. (Tomatoes
have a surprising ability to hold the heat.)
Inside-Out BLTs
Yields 12 bites
8
strips premium bacon, sliced crosswise into 1⁄8-
inch strips
8 i rm Roma tomatoes or green (unripe) tomatoes,
cut into 1⁄4-inch-thick slices
1 cup l our
3 eggs, beaten
2 cups bread crumbs or panko
3 or more tablespoons olive oil
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 4-ounce log goat cheese, approximately 11⁄2
inches in diameter, sliced 1⁄8-inch-thick
24 arugula leaves, lower stems discarded
Cook bacon over medium heat until crispy.
Drain on a paper towel.
Select the 24 most uniform tomato slices and
save the rest for tomorrow’s lunch. Dredge slices in
l our, then in eggs, then pat down in bread crumbs.
Reserve on plates, but do not stack.
In a sauté pan over medium-high heat, add
3 tablespoons oil. When oil is hot, add as many
breaded tomato slices as the pan can accommodate
without them touching. Fry for approximately
2 minutes per side, or until browned and crispy.
Remove from pan and drain on paper towels.
