Add Toppings - Rub the garlic onto each slice of toasted bread. Cut the tomato in half. Rub the tomato onto each slice of bread, making sure to really leave behind a lot of juice and pulp on the bread.

Drizzle a bit of extra virgin olive oil onto each piece of bread, then sprinkle each piece with salt. Enjoy!

Pan con Tomate VARIATION - To make a Spanish Tomato Bread, you grate the tomato on the large side of a box grater to get a chunky sauce. This will give you more of a tomato spread instead of just adding juice to your bread.

TIP

You can use a pastry brush to make sure the olive oil covers the entire piece of bread if you like a more uniform flavor.

06

Serve the tomato bread as fast as possible to avoid your bread getting soggy.
