"Some people may look at classic sandwiches like the BLT and think, "Boring." But they obviously haven't tried upgraded versions of the lunchtime legend. In particular, you can boost the bacon-y sandwich with a punchy condiment straight from page 77 of Joanna Gaines' " Magnolia Table" cookbook: Easy Herb Mayo. The celebrity chef, home, and kitchen guru's mayo is the perfect blend of vibrant, finely minced herbs, citrus, and spices that balance and soften the fattiness inherent to the condiment, as well as bacon."
"In Gaines' Easy Herb Mayo recipe, the chef recommends using a blend of chives, dill, and parsley, along with salt and pepper, smashed chopped garlic, sweet paprika, and lemon juice. This combination of herbs gives the mayo an undeniable brightness that works flawlessly to instantly elevate the sandwich. But you can certainly get creative in the kitchen and sub in whatever herbs you prefer or have on hand."
An herb-infused mayonnaise combines finely minced herbs, citrus, spices, and garlic to cut through and complement rich bacon and sandwich condiments. Recommended herbs include chives, dill, and parsley, seasoned with salt, pepper, sweet paprika, and lemon juice for bright, balanced flavor. Herb mayo can be customized with basil, mint, or other garden herbs to complement tomato or add unexpected freshness. Flavored mayonnaise offers a practical way to use leftover herbs from pesto or a bountiful garden. Simple topping swaps and additions, such as brushing bacon with hot honey, can create sweet-heat or other creative BLT variations.
