I don't usually talk sandwiches, cause sandwiches don't really have recipes per se. But I decided that is was time to talk about one of my favorite sandwiches on the planet.
I have a very short list.....
A properly made Reuben
Grilled Sharp Cheddar with a schmear of prepared horseradish (this one is up and coming)
Turkey, Brie and Pesto on Ciabatta
Butter and Radish on Sourdough
and The Gyro
to round out the top 5. I have already covered 3 of these, but I figured it was time to talk Turkey.
Just as the best butter and radish sandwich is made with homemade sourdough, unsalted butter, and the freshest radishes you can find... So too is the Turkey, Brie and Pesto sandwich best on Homemade Ciabatta, with fresh Pesto, triple cream Brie and freshly roasted turkey (which is why I just about live on these things after Thanksgiving).
I will admit, that a fairly delicious variation on this is to drop the Pesto and use Aioli... This can leave you open to using Champignon (Brie with Mushrooms) or Cambazoloa (blue brie). But personally, I prefer the combination of brie and pesto. Cause I am such a pesto freak.
So here we go....
Ciabatta Rolls
Pesto
Roasted Turkey
Triple Cream Brie
Turn on the broiler.
Slice your Ciabatta roll and spread each half with about 1 TB pesto.
On one half, lay our your sliced turkey.
On the other half, lay out a couple sliced of Triple Cream Brie.
Place on a sheet pan and place under the broiler for about 2 -3 minutes.
(you don't want the Brie to melt completely, just become REALLY soft)
Press the sandwich together, slice in half and enjoy.
Mangia!!
