I’m going to show you how to make something that the Spanish love to have for breakfast. Pan Con Tomate or Spanish Tomato Toast is a staple in Spain. It is simple, flavorful and will leave truly satisfied. Most of you know by now that I am obsessed with Spain. I lived their for close to 5 months and if I had my wish, I could retire in the South of Spain.

Instructions
  1. You’ll want to start by pre-heating your oven on broil and grabbing a rustic loaf of bread. You can use an Rosemary loaf, Olive loaf, a baguette or any other artisan bread. Cut your rustic bread into slices and drizzle the slices with Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  2. Next wash and dry a large ripe tomato. Cut in half.
  3. Now carefully grate your tomato into a mixing bowl creating a tomato pulp. I like to palm the tomato taking your fingers away from the sharp edges of the grate.
  4. Next, you are going to add a pinch of salt and 4 tablespoons of Extra Virgin Olive Oil to the pulp. I like to infuse the oil. See the video above. 
  5. Pull bread out of the oven. Use a large garlic clove and wipe across the grain of the bread. The oil from the garlic cloves give this bread a perfect, flavorful base before adding the tomato.
  6. Finally, you are going to spoon the tomato paste to your slices of bread. Drizzle more Extra Virgin Olive Oil to each piece of bread and add Maldon salt or simply sea salt
