Day 111: My Quick Panzanella ♥
A repeat of the wonderful tomato-bread salad called Panzanella, except this time, without blanching the tomatoes. Since making My First Panzanella last month, I knew that tomato + bread + stuff was the making of a meal, start to finish, tip to tail, top to toe. And so tonight it was. Supper. This time I skipped blanching, peeling and seeding the tomatoes. This time I skipped the grill to toast the bread under the broiler. In fifteen minutes flat: a feast. Was something special lost in speed? Yes. No. Yes and no. It's not that one is better than the other. It's that they're nearly two different salads. Where My First Panzanella is somehow plain and pure, My Quick Panzanella is plain and practical. They're both delicious. They're both keepers.
