Steps:
- Coarsely chop the tomatoes. Place them in a food processor and pulse until they are chopped fine. Or chop them fine by hand.
- Stir in the garlic, olive oil and basil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cut the bread into slices about 1/2-inch thick. You should have about 18 slices.
- Place 3 to 4 of the bread slices in the bottom of a 6-cup mixing bowl, trimming them if necessary so they completely cover the bottom of the bowl. Spoon about a quarter of the tomato mixture over the bread, enough to cover it. Make another layer of the bread, another of tomato, another bread, another of tomato and finish with a layer of the bread. Except for the bread in the bottom of the bowl, the other layers do not have to fit tightly.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, then set a dish that will fit inside the rim of the bowl directly on the wrap. Weight this dish with a heavy can of food, a rock or other heavy object and place this assembly in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours. Put the bowl on a plate to catch any liquid that may spill over.
- To serve, remove the weight, the plate and wrap. Run a flexible knife or spatula around the pudding inside the bowl to loosen it. Unmold the pudding onto a serving dish that has enough of a rim to catch any juices. Garnish the pudding with sprigs of basil and serve in wedges.
