There’s nothing delicate about this chunky panzanella with crunchy homemade croutons. Panzanella is a classic Tuscan dish best enjoyed in the warmer months, so you’re in good hands here. The dish was actually based around onions until the 20th century, when juicy tomatoes and stale bread became the more popular combination. Together with cucumber and pesto chicken, get ready for a big, crunchy time.
