Steps:
- For the vinaigrette, whisk the shallots, garlic, red wine vinegar, balsamic vinegar, mustard, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper together in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil, stir in the anchovies (if using), capers, and olives, and set aside.
- Core the tomatoes and slice them 1/3 inch thick. Place the bottom halves of the ciabattas, cut side up, on a sheet pan. Place a layer of tomato on each bread, spoon on 2/3 of the vinaigrette, add a layer of mozzarella, and sprinkle with the basil leaves. Spoon the remaining vinaigrette on the cut sides of the ciabatta tops and place them, cut side down, on the sandwiches. Place a second sheet pan on the sandwiches and put weights on top, such as cans of tomatoes. Allow the sandwiches to sit at room temperature for an hour for the flavors to blend.
- Heat an electric panini press and toast the sandwiches for 5 to 10 minutes, until the bread is toasted and the mozzarella starts to melt. Cut each sandwich in half and serve warm.

TOMATO SANDWICHES
You may not really need a recipe for a tomato sandwich, but sometimes varying it can be nice, especially if you tend to get stuck in a habit as the summer progresses. This version, based on pan con tomate, involves rubbing the guts of a ripe tomato all over garlicky toasted bread. More tomato slices are added on top, along with slivers of onion and mayonnaise, and bacon if you'd like. It's a supremely messy sandwich best munched over the sink, or with plenty of napkins nearby.

Steps:
- Toast the bread. Take each slice and rub one side all over with the cut side of the garlic clove. (The clove should start to disintegrate into the bread.) Rub each slice with the cut sides of the soft halved tomato, pressing so the tomato flesh sticks to the bread. Drizzle bread with oil, then sprinkle with salt.
- Spread mayonnaise over the tomato pulp. Place the sliced tomatoes on top of 2 pieces of the bread. Cover tomato slices with onions and sprinkle with salt. Top with bacon if using, then use the other 2 slices of tomato-rubbed bread to make sandwiches. Eat over the sink.

TASTY MARINATED TOMATOES

Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will make all the difference in the taste of your sandwich.
- Use a good quality balsamic vinegar. A cheap balsamic vinegar will not have the same flavor or depth as a good one.
- Marinate the tomatoes for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors of the marinade to soak into the tomatoes.
- Use a sturdy bread. A flimsy bread will not be able to hold up to the juicy tomatoes and marinade.
- Add fresh herbs, cheese, and other toppings to your sandwich. This will add extra flavor and texture.
Conclusion:
Balsamic marinated tomato sandwiches are a delicious and easy summer meal. They are perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, and they can be easily customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a sandwich that is both flavorful and satisfying.
