Ingredients
- 4 thick slices of rustic bread (such as country loaf or ciabatta)
- 2 large ripe tomatoes, halved
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled and halved
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- Flaky sea salt, to taste
Instructions
- Toast or grill the bread slices until golden and crispy on both sides.
- Rub one side of each toast with a cut garlic clove, pressing firmly to release flavor.
- Rub the cut side of a tomato half over the same side of the bread, squeezing gently to release juice and pulp.
- Drizzle each slice generously with olive oil and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
- Serve immediately.
Tips
- Use the ripest, most flavorful tomatoes you can find for best results.
- If you prefer less garlic, rub lightly or omit.
- Store leftover bread in an airtight container for up to a day; re-crisp in a toaster before serving.
