Let’s make it
- 01
Combine tomatoes, basil, half the oil, vinegar, and a pinch of salt. Rest 10 minutes.
- 02
Brush bread with remaining oil and toast at 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes until golden.
- 03
Rub warm toast lightly with cut garlic. Spoon on the tomato mixture just before serving.
A little kitchen wisdom
Spoon tomatoes onto toast just before eating. A finely serrated knife makes clean cuts through ripe tomato skin.
Make it your own
Use gluten-free bread as needed. White wine vinegar can replace balsamic, but begin with half the amount and taste.
Storage & leftovers
Refrigerate in a sealed container within 2 hours and use within 3 days. Reheat cooked leftovers to 165°F (74°C).
