This our GO-TO easy lunch meal during a super hot season! “Pan con Tomate” (also known as “Pan Tomaca” or “Pa amb Tomàquet” in Catalan) is a traditional Spanish dish that consists of toasted bread rubbed with ripe tomatoes and seasoned with olive oil, garlic, and salt. It’s a delicious and really captures that summer essence!
1 box grater
sieve
Toast the Bread: Place the bread slices on a grill pan or toaster and toast them until they are lightly golden and crispy. You can also rub the bread with a little bit of olive oil before toasting for extra flavor.
Prepare the Tomatoes: Using a box grater, grate the tomatoes into a bowl. Sieve the grated tomatoes to separate the fresh from the juice. Remove the tomatoes from the sieve and set the liquid aside to use in a sauce or vinaigrette later.
Using a spoon, add the grated sieved tomatoes onto your toasted bread. Be generous. It is flipping delicious.
Drizzle with the best cold-pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil you can find and finish with a sprinkle of coarse grey sea salt.
Optional: Fresh cracked black pepper OR top with anchovies.
Arrange the Pan con Tomate on a serving plate and serve immediately while the bread is still warm and crispy.
