Why cooks start here

Pan con Tomate belongs to the everyday cooking of Cataluña, where it is made often enough that nobody needs the recipe written down. This home version keeps the seasoning direct and the portions generous, the way a Spanish family cook puts it on the table.

Pan con Tomate is a staple of Catalonian home cooking, a dish so embedded in daily life that its recipe is more often shared by demonstration than by written word. This simple yet satisfying creation graces the table with regularity, embodying the unpretentious and warm spirit of a Spanish home kitchen. At its best, Pan con Tomate is a harmonious blend of textures and flavors: crispy bread soaked with the juice of ripe tomatoes, kissed with the pungency of raw garlic, and enriched by the lushness of extra virgin olive oil. A sprinkle of flaky sea salt brings everything into sharp focus, making each bite a celebration of simplicity and freshness.
