Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices crusty bread (such as a baguette or ciabatta)
- 2 large ripe tomatoes
- 1 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons flaky sea salt
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the slices of crusty bread on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for 4-5 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy. Remove from the oven and set aside.
Cut the ripe tomatoes in half horizontally. Use the cut side of the tomato to gently rub each slice of toasted bread until the surface is coated with tomato pulp.
Peel the garlic clove and cut it in half. Rub the cut side of the garlic over each slice of bread to infuse it with a hint of garlic flavor.
Drizzle each slice of bread with a bit of extra virgin olive oil, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the top of each slice.
Serve immediately as a snack, appetizer, or side dish.
