Preparation time: 20 minutes. Standing time: 10 minutes. This salad
displays the Tuscan trait of using stale bread in innovative ways. Paired
with fresh summer produce, the dried bread takes on a second life.
Classically, a rustic Italian bread is used. We tried it with an olive oil
and rosemary-scented loaf.
