La panzanella: un piatto estivo e delizioso da provare subito! Ricetta di tradizione contadina.

In a large bowl, combine the cubed stale bread, chopped tomatoes, sliced cucumber, and thinly sliced red onion.

Add the torn basil leaves to the bowl with the vegetables and bread.

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.

Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently to combine, ensuring the bread absorbs some of the dressing.

Let the salad sit for about 15-30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the bread to soften slightly.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper as desired.

Serve the salad at room temperature, garnished with additional basil if desired.
