Who needs a recipe for a tomato sandwich? I finally procured some flavorful tomatoes, and this was the right recipe to try.

Unusual aspects of this recipe are the inclusion of butter (at two steps) and anchovies! I liked the fresh mozzarella, and that the sandwich also included Parmesan cheese on top (then broiled).

The anchovies were an interesting touch. Well, they were more than a touch, they were more like a slap. A very salty slap. I really liked my first nibble that included anchovies, but I quickly tired of them. I also made some without anchovies, and found them more to my liking.

So - if you don't like anchovies - go ahead and make this without them. Its still a different sort of tomato sandwich, and very good.
