Calories: 328kcal
Ingredients
- 1 loaf rustic country bread
- 6 medium - large ripe tomatoes
- 2 cloves garlic sliced in half
- 1/4 cup best quality olive oil
- a few big pinches of good sea salt
Instructions
- Grill bread on both sides until lightly golden and grill marks appear.
- While bread is warm, rub with cut side of garlic clove. Garlic will melt into bread.
- Slice a tomato in half and "scrub" cut side into bread, lightly squeezing pulp out.
- (Each tomato half should do 2 pieces of bread)
- Drizzle liberally with a few glugs of olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt.
Notes
Best eaten immediately, but can be heated in the oven if needed.
Heat on a rack inside of a sheet pan so bread stays crunchy.
