This classic bread and tomato soup, known traditionally in Italy as pappa al pomodoro, is the ultimate example of clever, sustainable cooking. By using simple store-cupboard staples like tinned tomatoes and day-old white bread, you can create a dish that is remarkably rich, velvety, and deeply satisfying. The key to its success lies in the high-quality olive oil and the slow simmering process, which allows the bread to break down and thicken the soup into a beautifully rustic texture.

As a naturally vegan dish, this soup is a wonderful choice for those looking for a hearty, plant-based meal that doesn't compromise on flavour. It is particularly comforting during the cooler months, though it remains a popular choice year-round. Serve it in warmed bowls with an extra drizzle of cold-pressed olive oil and a few fresh basil leaves for a simple yet sophisticated lunch or light supper.

Ingredients for Bread and Tomato Soup

240ml olivolja
3 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
900g day-old white bread, without crusts, torn into small pieces
1 (800g) can whole peeled tomatoes, pureed with their juice
4 cups vegetable stock (or water)
3 to 4 basil leaves, torn into small pieces
Kosher salt to taste

How to make Bread and Tomato Soup

Heat the oil in a large, deep saucepan over low heat.
Sauté the garlic until just fragrant, then add the bread, stirring until all the oil is absorbed and the bread is toasted.
Add the tomatoes, stock, basil, and salt.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat. Simmer until the bread breaks down, about 20 minutes. Remove the garlic and serve.
