Bread Salsa (Michael Dean's in Raleigh, Nc)

Submitted by WhoKnew

"This is the tomato dip that Michael Dean's restaurant serves with their meals; it is the best I've ever had and doesn't taste like "traditional marinara sauce" though a lot of the ingredients are similar. I got this recipe from the Raleigh News & Observer newspaper, who received it from a chef at Michael Dean's restaurant."
