What is a good alternative to a pesto sauce on a caprese sandwich?
ketchup
thx
olive oil-garlic spinach?
nothing really...
just crush a few walnuts in olive oil + salt + pepper + dried herbs (oregano, thyme, rosemary, sage, etc). Baby spinach, red onions, balsamic, and red wine vinegar on hand if you've got it.
Just go for that italian sub flavor.
maybe some hummus
Balsamic reduction.
>What is a good alternative to a pesto sauce on a caprese sandwich?
sun-dried tomato pesto is a whole different beast
any kind of olive salad or pickled or roasted peppers (think muffaletta)
basic basil leaves (or other herb even green onion), olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt pepper, chopped garlic, anchovies or smoked fish of some sort. Goat cheese, smoked cheese, any addition goes nicely with the bland freshness of caprese.
Pickled onions is a nice change as are capers or cucumber, vary the vinegar, or even ctirus juice. Make it latino with some chimmichurri, or lizano, or thinly sliced chorizo.
pesto of something else... maybe savory or parsley
No pesto, no caprese, capisce?
A mild herby aioli might not overpower everything else.
This desu yo.
Don't put fucking pesto in sandwiches man, that's not what it's for. I'm not even sure I would add the dried herbs to mine

Black olive tapenade
it's not ruining it, it's improving it
garlic aioli
> implying panino caprese isn't as traditional as a caprese dish
Stop trying to be a purist when you don't know shit
Just olive oil and balsamic with a touch of lemon juice.
Why are you faggots even accepting the notion of replacing pesto?
People that feel like they're an authority because they're from the same place as a dish originated legitimately need to get clubbed
go for tomato relish, or if you wanna get fancy, a combo of a spicy fruity chutney like mango chilli and sour cream
olive tapenade or artichoke tapenade
Here's your (You), faggot
