A quick summer breakfast inspired by Cretan dakos, traditionally made with paximadi, a dry bread rusk, tomatoes, olive oil, and cheese. Ripe, meaty tomatoes are grated until only the skin remains in your hand, then mixed with olive oil, salt, and pepper. A slice of bread is spread with butter and toasted in a skillet until golden, then topped with the grated tomatoes, feta, cherry tomatoes, a few capers, and an anchovy.

Instructions
Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.
Wash and halve the tomatoes, then grate them until only the skin remains in your hand.
Add the olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the grated tomatoes and stir to combine.
Spread the slice of bread with butter (or brush with olive oil) and toast in a skillet until golden.
Spread the grated tomato mixture over the toast and top with feta, halved cherry tomatoes, capers, and the anchovy. Sprinkle with fresh oregano or basil.
Use capers and anchovies sparingly, as they have strong flavors. If desired, replace the feta with Balkan-style white brined cheese, add olives, or leave out the anchovies.
Tip: Capers and anchovies have strong flavors, so a little goes a long way. Feel free to leave out the anchovy or replace the feta with Balkan-style white brined cheese.
