4 slices of rustic bread (such as a baguette or country loaf)
2 ripe tomatoes, cut in half
1-2 garlic cloves, peeled
Extra virgin olive oil
Salt, to taste
1
Toast the Bread:
Toast the bread slices until they are golden and crisp. You can do this in a toaster, under a broiler, or on a grill.
2
Rub with Garlic:
Rub one side of each toasted bread slice with the peeled garlic clove. The rough texture of the toasted bread will help grate the garlic.
3
Add Tomato:
Take a halved tomato and rub it over the garlic-rubbed side of the bread, allowing the flesh to soak into the bread while leaving the skin behind.
4
Season:
Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over the bread and sprinkle with salt to taste.
5
Serve:
Enjoy as is or accompany with slices of ham, cheese, or anchovies for added flavor.
