🇪🇸 Spain recipe

Pan con Tomate

The simplest and most iconic dish of Catalonia, and arguably all of Spain. Crisp toasted bread is rubbed vigorously with the cut side of a ripe tomato until the pulp melts into the rough surface, then drizzled with the best extra virgin olive oil and sprinkled with salt. When made with perfect ingredients, it is greater than the sum of its parts.
