  • Drain the chickpeas, place in a large pot with 6 cups of cold water.
  • Bring to a simmer over a medium heat. Reduce the heat to just below a simmer and cook until the chickpeas are creamy and soft, 1 hour 15 minutes to 2 hours.
  • Remove the chickpeas from the heat and discard the sachet of vegetables and herbs. Generously season with salt (the broth should taste great by itself) and lots of black pepper.
  • Add the olive oil, I used the whole ½ cup but you can pull back a bit if you like.
  • Give it a stir and taste for seasoning.
  • Preheat a grill or griddle pan and brush the bread slices with some extra virgin olive oil. Toast the bread on the griddle pan on both sides.
  • Once the bread is finished toasting, rub the cut garlic cloves over the toast and dip one side into the grated tomato, so it soaks up a good amount of juice, then sprinkle with sea salt.
