OPEN-FACED TUNA MELT SANDWICH



Open-Faced Tuna Melt Sandwich image

To take a tuna melt from good to great, it has to have all the right components. In other words, plain mayo alone won't cut it. Here's how we do it: open-faced with crusty toasted bread, melty cheese, capers, cornichons, Dijon mustard, and plenty of seasoning. On a chilly fall day, nothing tastes better.

OPEN FACE TUNA MELT SANDWICH

These have become a quick dinner staple. They are sooo good, and comes together in minutes. You can change the type of cheese, but I've found that something with a stronger flavor that melts well, is best. The type of bread I use is called Saloio and is similar to Ciabbata (Saloio is a portuguese bread readily available at our supermarket bakery).

1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning

2 tomatoes, sliced
8 slices piquante provolone cheese (or swiss)

  • Salad ... Add the tuna, celery, shallot, scallion, olives, capers, lemon juice and zest, parsley, and mix. And, don't forget - you can always add a bit more of any of the ingredients, but start with this amount. Add in the mayonnaise, a little at a time until you get the consistency you like best. As I said, I like mine a bit drier, but is a personal preference. Make sure to season with any additional salt or pepper.
  • Bread ... Add the four slices of bread to a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper for easy clean up. Preheat the broiler, and add the pan to the second shelf down - you don't want the bread to burn. Lightly toast on each side.
  • Sandwich ... Top the bread with the tuna salad, 2 tomato slices, a couple of onion rings, and finish with 2 slices of cheese. Back under the broiler until the cheese is melted.
