Panzanella (Tuscan tomato and bread salad)
Panzanella is a classic Tuscan salad featuring crusty bread, juicy ripe tomatoes, crisp cucumber, and fragrant fresh basil. Tossed in olive oil and red wine vinegar, the bread soaks up the savoury dressing and sweet tomato juices. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving so all the flavours meld beautifully.

Remove the tomato skins by placing the tomatoes into boiling water for a few seconds and refreshing in a bowl of ice cold water. The skins should now peel away easily. Add the tomatoes to the bread, along with the cucumber and red onion. Scatter over the finely chopped garlic and add a pinch of salt. Mix until well combined.
