Panzanella! It really IS good, and so simple, isn't it? All you have to do is make sure the tomatoes are at peak flavour. I make it all the time!

I've wanted to try something like this but keep forgetting - do you use day-old bread so it absorbs more of the juices/flavor?

Actually, we usually use a good, crusty real 'Italian' bread that is 2-3 days old. You're right, being a few days old does help the bread to absorb the flavors. If Italian bread isn't available, French bread (especially baguettes) is acceptable substitute, just be sure to let it age for a few days.
