Panzanella
Just be sure to use the freshest and tastiest tomatoes you can find -
the
essence of this Italian bread salad depends on it.
10 ounces Italian bread, cubed
4 cups tomato, chopped
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 cup red onion, minced
1 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
black pepper
In a large bowl, toss bread, tomato, garlic, onion, and fresh basil
leaves Pour the olive oil over the salad; add the vinegar, salt, and
pepper to taste. Toss well; cover and allow to sit in the refrigerator
for at least 3 hours (so the bread can absorb the dressing juices).
Return
to room temperature; garnish with more basil leaves, if desired. serve.
