SaveSummary
BLT, hold the bread (you won't miss it). Big chunks of sun-ripened tomato and soft leaves of butterhead lettuce—Boston or Bibb, for instance—are topped with a creamy blue cheese dressing (fine-tuned with a wizardly touch of bacon fat) and plenty of crisp homemade bacon bits. It is a familiar yet striking kickoff to a bucolic meal seriously focused on produce.
Ingredients
- 6 bacon slices, chopped
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 3 tablespoons whole milk plus additional if necessary
- 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
- 1 scallion, chopped
- 1 cup crumbled blue cheese (1/4 pound), divided
- 1 (1/2-pound) head Bibb or Boston lettuce
- 1 large beefsteak tomato, cut into wedges
