Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Let’s start with the bread! Lightly butter one side of each slice of bread. Then, toast them in a pan over medium heat for about 3 minutes until golden brown and slightly crispy. This creates a delightful texture contrast.
Step 2
Now, it’s time to cook the bacon. Place the bacon strips in a pan over medium heat and cook for about 3 minutes, flipping occasionally, until they are nice and crispy. You can place them on a paper towel afterwards to drain any excess grease.
Step 3
It’s time to assemble! On the unbuttered side of one slice of toasted bread, place the fresh lettuce leaf. Generously spread the soft ricotta cheese over the lettuce. The creamy cheese will balance out the flavors.
Step 4
Arrange the crispy cooked bacon strips over the ricotta cheese. The savory bacon will complement the creamy cheese beautifully.
Step 5
Add some crunchy vegetables for freshness. Layer the thinly sliced onions and cucumbers evenly over the bacon. These fresh vegetables will add a bright, crisp element to the sandwich.
Step 6
Next, add the thinly sliced fresh tomatoes on top of the vegetables. The juiciness and slight tang of the tomatoes are essential for enhancing the overall flavor of the BLT.
Step 7
Here’s the special touch: the rich and flavorful Seoul Milk Emmental cheese! Place 1 or 2 slices on top of the tomatoes, according to your preference. The cheese will melt slightly, binding all the ingredients together.
Step 8
For the other slice of bread, let’s prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, combine the sauce ingredients: 1 tsp mustard, 2 tbsp mayonnaise, a pinch of salt, a pinch of sugar, and a pinch of pepper. Mix well until smooth. Spread this delicious sauce evenly on the inside of the remaining bread slice.
Step 9
Finally, place the sauce-covered bread slice on top to complete your sandwich. Slice it in half and enjoy this wonderfully flavorful BLT!
