Grilled Heirloom Tomato and Mozzarella Sandwiches with Green Heirloom Tomato Gazpacho

Ingredients for Grilled Heirloom Tomato and Mozzarella Sandwiches with Green Heirloom Tomato Gazpacho

• 450g ripe green heirloom tomatoes, cored, cut into large chunks

• 1 6-inch piece unpeeled English hothouse cucumber, diced

• 50g de cebola picada

• 50g de aipo picado

• 70g salted roasted Marcona almonds

• 2 colheres de sopa de azeite de oliva extra-virgem

• 2 dentes de alho grandes, descascados

• 1 tablespoon Champagne vinegar or other white wine vinegar

• 1 teaspoon (or more) coarse kosher salt

• 8 1/3-inch-thick slices brioche or challah, trimmed to 5x3 inches

• 1 230g package smoked mozzarella cheese, cut into 1-inch-wide by 1/8-inch-thick slices

• 2 large heirloom tomatoes (preferably Brandywine), cut into 1/4-inch slices

• 60g (1/2 tablete) de manteiga

Combine first 8 ingredients and 1 teaspoon coarse salt in processor. Blend to almost smooth puree (some texture should remain). Season with pepper and more salt, if desired. Transfer to medium bowl. Cover; chill at least 3 hours and up to 1 day.

Cut each bread slice into rectangle (about 4 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches). Arrange 4 bread rectangles on work surface. Top bread with half of cheese slices (trimming to fit) and 2 tomato slices. Sprinkle tomatoes with salt and pepper. Top with remaining cheese, then remaining bread; press to compact.

Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add sandwiches. Cover and cook until bread is golden, turning once, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer sandwiches to paper towels. Cut each sandwich in half.

Divide gazpacho among 4 bowls; place on plates. Arrange sandwiches alongside.
