Ingredients
- 2 large ripe tomatoes
- 1 loaf rustic bread (such as ciabatta or baguette)
- 2 medium garlic cloves
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper (optional)
Directions
Step 1
1. Start by cutting the bread loaf into 8 slices, each about half an inch thick.
Step 2
2. Toast the bread slices on a grill or in a toaster until golden brown and slightly crispy, about 3-5 minutes.
Step 3
3. While the bread is toasting, cut each tomato in half and grate the flesh into a bowl using a box grater. Discard the skin.
Step 4
4. Peel the garlic cloves and cut one in half. Rub the cut side of the garlic on the warm, toasted bread slices to impart flavor. Use more garlic if a stronger flavor is desired.
Step 5
5. Spoon the freshly grated tomato pulp generously over each piece of bread. Spread it out with the back of the spoon to cover the entire surface.
Step 6
6. Drizzle each slice with about 1/2 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil.
Step 7
7. Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt over each piece of bread to enhance the flavors. Optionally, season with ground black pepper to taste.
Step 8
8. Serve the Pan Con Tomate immediately while the bread is still warm and crispy for the best experience.
