Pappa al Pomodoro

Ingredients for Pappa al Pomodoro

• 900g tomatoes, cored, quartered

• 2 garlic cloves, smashed

• 1/2 teaspoons fennel seeds

• 6 tablespoons olive oil, divided, plus more

• Sale kosher

• Pepe nero macinato fresco

• 4 sprigs basil

• 1/4 loaf country-style bread, crust removed, torn into 2" pieces (about 350ml ), divided

Preheat oven to 450°. Toss tomatoes, garlic, fennel seeds, and 3 tablespoons oil in a large baking dish; season with salt and pepper.

Roast, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes are browned and the juices thicken, 30–35 minutes.

Transfer tomato mixture to a large saucepan; add basil, 1 cup torn bread, and 950ml water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally and breaking up bread and tomatoes a little, until bread is softened and soup has thickened slightly, 8–10 minutes; season with salt and pepper.

Meanwhile, tear remaining 120ml bread into smaller pieces; toss on a baking sheet with 3 tablespoons oil; season with salt. Toast, tossing often, until crisp, 5–8 minutes.

Serve soup topped with toasted bread and drizzled with more oil.
