Instructions
- Wash the tomatoes and cut them in half. Use a knife to remove the seeds. Sprinkle a little salt on them and place them upside down in a colander for about 15 minutes. This helps the tomatoes gain flavor and lose extra water.
- While the tomatoes are draining, prepare the aromatic filling. Put the bread slices in a food processor and chop them finely. Transfer the chopped bread to a bowl and add the chopped parsley.
- Finely chop the garlic and add it to the bread mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Pour in a cup of extra virgin olive oil and mix everything together.
- Rinse the tomatoes to remove the excess salt. Use a spoon to fill each tomato half with the bread mixture, pressing lightly on top. Arrange the filled tomatoes in an oven dish, placing them close to each other. Sprinkle grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese on top of the tomatoes.
- Drizzle a little more extra virgin olive oil over them. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes to form a golden crust. When the tops are golden, your tomato gratin is ready!
