Steps:
- Make the bread crumbs: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Put bread cubes in a mixing bowl, drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, season lightly with salt and pepper and toss well. Spread on a baking sheet in one layer and bake uncovered for 5 to 10 minutes, or until crisp and golden. Set aside to cool. When cool, crush into very coarse crumbs.
- Make the vinaigrette: Put the garlic in a small bowl with the vinegar, mustard and a pinch of salt. Whisk in 1/4 cup of olive oil. Set aside.
- Prepare a charcoal grill or light the broiler. Cut larger tomatoes into 1-inch-thick slices or leave smaller ones whole. Place tomatoes on the hottest part of the grill and let them char for about 3 minutes on one side if using a broiler, or place tomatoes on a baking sheet as close to the flame as possible. Tomatoes should still be firm.
- Place tomatoes and eggs on a platter or divide among 4 plates. Sprinkle lightly with salt and spoon dressing over. Drape anchovy fillets over eggs and add a generous handful of bread crumbs. Garnish with basil, parsley and crushed red pepper.

Tips:
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes. This will ensure that your dish is packed with flavor.
- Choose high-quality anchovies. Look for anchovies that are plump and have a silvery sheen. Avoid anchovies that are dry or have a strong fishy smell.
- Make sure to rinse and desalt the anchovies before using them. This will help to remove any excess salt and make them more palatable.
- Use a light hand when dressing the tomatoes. A little bit of dressing goes a long way.
- Serve the tomatoes immediately or chill them for a few hours before serving. They are delicious either way.
