Instructions
- Peel tomatoes (if they are mature, skin comes off easily. Otherwise, blanched, for several minutes, and cooled in ice water to better remove skin. Remove seeds, cut into cubes and place tomatoes in a pot with water. Simmer the sauce for a few minutes. Add salt and cover with the pan.
- Cut bread into cubes and add it to the sauce (some recipes suggest soaking it in water but I prefer to soften during cooking with tomato).
- Run for approximately 15 minutes, or until the bread crumbs are almost defeats (if the soup becomes too dry, just add a ladle of water).
- Add some basil leaves and let stand for at least 30 minutes.
