Ingredients:

  • 1 cup gorgonzola
  • 6 tbsp butter (2 for the cheese spread, 4 for the ciabatta rolls)
  • 1 loaf ciabatta (cut lengthwise and then in 4 pieces)
  • 3 large tomatoes (cut in thick slices)

Directions:

  1. Cheese - Just mix the butter (2 tablespoons), bleu cheese crumbles and onion and let it rest - room temp right before you use it.
  2. Sandwich - Simply spread the bleu cheese butter on the inside slice of the ciabatta bread. Top with 2-3 tomato slices, salt and pepper and fresh basil leaves. Top with the second ciabatta slice.
  3. Bread - I melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter and brush on the top and bottom of the sandwich and then grill. Now this can be done outside, an inside grill pan which is my method or you can use a pancake grilled, panini press or just plain saute pan. Use whatever you have. If possible, I like to press mine down a bit as it grills. Honestly, I just use my cast iron pan, but use anything you have. You just want it to flatten a little. And don't press it hard - there are tomatoes in there. Just a little weight is all it needs. It's just grilled cheese. It takes 4-5 minutes per side on medium heat.
  4. Serve - I love to serve mine with tomato soup or potato soup. But this is a great sandwich, and the fresh ingredients and good bread really is what makes this stand out.
