We've created a very nostalgic, highly snackable Melty Mozzarella Tomato Toast recipe that’s full of flavor and melty, to give your weekday dishes a Tillamook Taste-Over.
Make the herb sauce: In a small bowl, whisk basil, parsley, garlic, vinegar, and oil together until it is combined. Season with a pinch or two of salt, to taste. Set aside.
Sprinkle salt over tomato slices to extract juices. Set aside.
On a sheet pan, assemble the toast: Drizzle olive oil on both sides of sourdough. Lay 4 slices of Tillamook Whole Milk Mozzarella across each slice of bread, then rest 1 slice of tomato on top of the mozzarella.
Place sheet pan into oven or grill and cook for 4-6 minutes (grill closed, if using) until mozzarella is very melty and bread is nicely toasted.
Serve toasts immediately, drizzled with herb sauce. Enjoy!
Tip 1: In peak tomato season, which is also peak summer, you can make this recipe on the grill to keep your kitchen cool during the hottest time of the year!
Tip 2: To get the most out of your tomatoes, be sure to do these two things: 1. Cut them with a bread knife. The serrated edge will glide through the tomato with ease. 2. Immediately after slicing, sprinkle your tomato slices with salt to extract their juices and maximize their flavor.
