Each few months I discover myself in San Diego. Normally North County, not removed from the place I went to school. I really like that stretch of coast (Salk Institute! Encinitas!) and we pop down as usually as we are able to. A visit to this space isn’t full with out braving La Jolla site visitors to go to Wayfarer Bread. It’s the neighborhood bakery of desires situated in Fowl Rock. They usually have a frittata sandwich on the menu and if we’re there for lunch, it’s what I order. The model I had final April concerned asparagus, avocado and spring onion aioli with slabs of sheet pan frittata and slices of Hatch chile cheddar cheese loaded between slices of their stunning sourdough. I made a multitude of all of it, however cherished each chunk.
Again at residence, I’ve since tried to step up my frittata sandwich sport. Sheet pan frittatas are wildly versatile and handy, however till I skilled the Wayfarer sandwich, I primarily loved sheet pan frittata slices as a rice bowl element, or as an accompanying some form of potato state of affairs for brunch, or as a make-ahead element for breakfast burritos. However currently, if I make one, and if I’ve some good bread, I channel some Wayfarer sandwich vibes, raid the fridge, and go for it. Right here’s a current favourite model, made with a number of elements you’ll most likely acknowledge from earlier recipes posted right here!
