Torricado

Torricado is a traditional dish originating from the Ribatejo area. It's made with slices of old bread that are toasted over charcoal, soaked in olive oil, then brushed with garlic and seasoned with salt. Torricado is typically served as a side dish to grilled salt cod, often along with migas and smashed roast potatoes. This dish has origins with rural workers who made it as a cheap and filling lunch to take in the fields.
