Bread Salad

This simple and tasty bread salad has many variations around the Mediterranean, including the Italian panzanella, Turkish omaç, and Catalan pa amb tomàquet. They each give new life to old, dry bread by toasting and then tossing pieces with bright and flavorful seasonal ingredients. Try adding chopped purslane, fresh mint, and lettuce to the mix. Fattoush is particularly satisfying on hot summer days.
