Kentucky Hot Brown Sandwiches
And they're off! Today is the 144th running of the Kentucky Derby, commonly referred to as the most exciting two minutes in sports. While I know nothing about odds and favorites to win the race, I do know that there are certainly recipes that are always found in the Winner's Circle when it comes to Derby Day. For my contribution to today's festivities, I chose the Kentucky Hot Brown Sandwich. Since I've never made or eaten one before, I turned the Taste of Home website search.
I made some slight changes to the recipe. I used 15 grain bread, it's just what I have on hand. I used sliced roasted turkey instead of the deli meat. Since the heirloom variety of tomatoes I purchased were so huge, I only did one slice per sandwich. My roux got a little dark in the pan, but it's absolutely delicious. I love all the different flavors and textures.
Thank you so much to Ellen from Family Around the Table for hosting, and to all the other Festive Foodies for sharing their recipes!
