Pan Con Tomate
 

Pan Con Tomate

Pan Con Tomate originates from Catalonia, Spain and translates to tomato bread. It’s name and ingredients are really that simple. But don’t be mistaken, this simple dish is quite exquisite! It starts with the best tomatoes you can find. Hearty bread that is toasted or grilled and rubbed with fresh garlic. It’s then topped with the gorgeous pureé of tomatoes that have been grated, salted and drizzled with good olive oil. It’s extremely easy to make and is filled with layers of flavor in every bite. It’s typically made for breakfast but enjoy it any time of day or with tapas.
