"This easy to prepare traditional Italian dish brings the taste of the garden into your home. Made with Pane Pugliese, a thick and crusty bread, chewy and porous, a perfect compliment for a lunch or dinner with cheese, dried meats or foods with sauces."

Prepare a charcoal grill or heat a gas grill to medium-high. Toast the bread slices on one side. Transfer bread to a work surface, toasted-side up. Reduce grill to medium-low.
