People really aren’t this inept at cooking are they? This is literally just toast and tomatoes…
PRO TIP: Tomato bread is THE BASE FOR EVERY SANDWICH in catalonia, as mayonnaise is for americans. Instead of spreading mayo on a sandwich, we rub in in tomato, drizzle olive oil, and then we fill it with ham, cheese, bacon, chicken whatever a sandwich can be filled with.
PD. In catalonia we rub the tomato on the bread, not pulp it. They sell a specific variety of tomato (tomàquet de penjar) that rubs very very well leaving only a really thin skin behind. However, the method shown here is used in many restaurants bc it accepts all types of tomato and is more tomato forward to eat it as a tapa.
I love pizza
You need to both sides of the bread
It would be great if ATK started selling their chef coats
What a great way to use up leftover tomatoes and bread! So simple, quick, and easy👍.
What happened to two ingredients only?
This looks so good! I make something very similar, only difference is I add a little bit of oregano, some mozzarella, and sometimes a cured meat or something similar like pepperoni…it’s amazing!
I love a “two ingredient” recipe with six ingredients: bread, tomatoes, — oh and then —garlic, salt, olive oil, coarse grain sea salt! Use a fantastic olive oil.
I would have had to have coated a big glob of butter on each piece before toasting.
Looks delicious. I would add some avocado slices. Yum!
nothing better than a "2 ingredient" recipe with 5 ingredients
Disgusting 🤢
Way too much tomato.
Im Catalan and this is pretty accurate! Bravo 🙂
This is just a working class bruschetta.
Top that with some fresh chopped Basil and Cilantro,,,,,OOOOOOOH so good!
You really just want to rub the tomato not grating the bread. Also the Catalan breed is Pa de Pages
LOOKS LIKE EVERYDAY iTALIAN MADE BREAD- OIL & MATERS- BIG DEAL
Wonderful recipe! In Barcelona you just rub the garlic and tomato against the bread, then drizzle the olive oil and salt on top… voila
Omg thank you for saying it in catalan! ❤
Thank you!
let's not and just say we did………………….
Too messy.
Could not be simpler!
That was 4 ingredients and a very lackluster recipe for ATK
Put some Serrano ham on top as well.
This is the worst cooking Channel
