Pan Con Tomate
Description
Pan Con Tomate showcases peeled Roma tomatoes grated finely to create a fresh, textured tomato topping combined with minced garlic, olive oil, rice vinegar, and sea salt. The preparation involves gently poaching whole tomatoes to loosen the skin for peeling, then grating them rather than chopping, lending a moist, spreadable consistency.
The acidity from the vinegar and brightness from fresh garlic enrich the flavor, while toasted bread provides a crunchy base that contrasts the juicy tomato mixture. Adding slices of cured ham or prosciutto is optional and adds a savory, meaty element when desired.
This dish works well as a snack, appetizer, or accompaniment to a larger meal. It celebrates fresh tomato flavors without heavy seasoning, depending on high-quality, ripe ingredients. Quick to prepare once tomatoes are peeled, it invites simple but attentive execution.
Ingredients
- 2 Roma tomato
- 1/2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar unseasoned
- 3/4 teaspoon garlic minced, fresh
- 1/4 teaspoon salt sea salt
- bread good quality, thick, sliced
- ham optional, cured or prosciutto
Instructions
- First, peel the skin off the tomato. To do this, make a small cross on the bottom of the tomatoes using a sharp knife. Place them in a bowl and cover with hot water for 2 minutes before transferring them to an ice bath. The skins should easily peel off. Once peeled, use a box grater to grate the tomatoes into a bowl.
- Add the olive oil, rice vinegar, garlic and salt, then stir until well mixed.
- Spread onto toasted bread. Top with optional ham or prosciutto and serve.
