Instructions

  1. 1

    Tear the stale bread into rough bite-sized chunks and put them in a wide bowl.

  2. 2

    Cut the tomatoes into wedges over a bowl to catch every drop of juice, salt them and let them sit for 10 minutes to release more.

  3. 3

    Slice the cucumber and the red onion as thinly as you can.

  4. 4

    Add tomatoes with all their juices, cucumber and onion to the bread, pour over the vinegar and olive oil, season and toss well.

  5. 5

    Let the salad rest at room temperature for 30 minutes so the bread soaks up the dressing.

  6. 6

    Tear the basil over the top, taste, adjust salt and vinegar, and serve.
