Notes & Suggestions

What is Pan Tumaca?
Traditionally known as pan tumaca or pan con tomate, it’s a simple combination of toasted bread, tomato, garlic, olive oil, and salt.
Tip text
No more soggy toast. Toast the bread until well browned. If your bread is too thin or soft, it will soak up the oil and tomatoes quickly. Sturdy sourdough works best.
