sun-dried tomato bread

Tuscan bakery staple

Sun-dried tomato bread is a savory bread studded with sun-dried tomatoes, which contribute a concentrated, tangy sweetness and chewy texture throughout.

The tomatoes are typically mixed into the dough along with herbs like basil or rosemary and sometimes cheese or olives.

Popular for sandwiches or served alongside soups and salads: I picked up a loaf of sun-dried tomato bread at the bakery.
