TRADITIONAL ITALIAN PANZANELLA (TUSCAN BREAD SALAD)
5 ripe organic Roma tomatoes 3 slices of organic sourdough casalinga bread (stale or toasted) 1/2 red onion very finely sliced Black olives - remove pips Bunch of Italian parsley Home made pesto (optional) Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper Chop tomatoes into roughly even size pieces. Tear or slice Casalinga bread into similar size pieces. Thinly slice onion. Remove parsley leaves from their stalk. Add tomatoes, bread, onion, parsley and black olives into a salad bowl. Toss through with 3 tablespoons of Everyday Cider Tonic, 6 - 7 tablespoons of the best Extra Virgin Olive Oil, salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix well. Allow Panzanella to sit for 20 minutes before serving so that all the flavours and juices combine. Optional - I like to add a tablespoon of home made pesto on top for extra punch and flavour!!
