This week, we're sharing a simple yet flavorful recipe from Catalonia, Spain - Pa Amb Tomàquet. This traditional dish requires just a few ingredients: ripe tomatoes, bread, garlic, olive oil, and salt. The recipe balances the sweet and tart of heirloom tomatoes with the spicy bite of raw garlic. It's a gift passed down to me from my Yaya and now it can be a part of your summer memories too.
