Very nice, although I did only add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and it was plenty salty. Delicious on sandwiches.

OMG Basil and mayo - two of my favorites. This is so delish. Like some other reviewers I think the mayo (Hellmann's, of course already has enough salt. Also, would you not agree Ina has the BEST music on TV. If the show is a re-run I sometimes work around the house and just listen 'cause the music is so great. Love ya ina. Your recipes are great.

I love this sandwich! I've been making it for years. The mayo is the real star of the show, and can be used in many other applications - I usually double it and keep it in the fridge for other sandwiches. It's also great as a dipping sauce for crudités, or for sweet potato fries! I would recommend using the full 15 basil leaves, and omitting the salt altogether. Mayo has plenty of sodium in it, and when I made this for the first time with the salt, it was almost inedible. I also add a healthy dose of freshly ground black pepper - everything is better with pepper!

This is a great sandwich. The tomatoes need to be in season. If you can get some large heirloom tomatoes and some great crusty bread you will not have a better sandwich all summer. I saw this recipe for these on Ina's show and ate them for about a week. If you love summer tomatoes this is the sandwich!

Fabulous sandwich! Very fresh and full of flavor. Light yet satisfying. You can definitely substitute fresh summer tomatoes for the heirloom as I really can't tell much difference in taste. My husband wasn't as thrilled and called it a 'wish sandwich' (he wished it had some meat. The basil mayo is the star and can be used in a variety of sandwiches or recipes.

This sandwich is drop dead good. The taste is out of this world. The after taste of basil is wonderful, like fine wine
