This cold summer classic from Spain has as many recipes as cooks! This version includes bread, which provides some texture, and uses ripe tomatoes. Don’t be tempted to compromise and use canned tomatoes or passata, as the taste is markedly different, so keep this recipe for when you have plenty of tomatoes which you’ve ripened on the windowsill.
