Ingredients

- 1 clove garlic whole
- 1 Roma tomato
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to a low broil.
- Place the slices from one crusty loaf on an ungreased cookie sheet and place the sheet in the oven for 2-3 minutes or until the bread is toasted. Flip the bread over and toast again until browned. Remove the bread from the oven.
- Peel the garlic clove and cut it in half. Rub the garlic onto each slice of bread.
- Cut 1 roma tomato in half. Rub the tomato onto each slice of bread
- Drizzle a bit of olive oil onto each piece of bread, then sprinkle each piece with salt. Enjoy!
Notes
- Recipe Copyright The Foreign Fork. For educational or personal use only.
- Use a serrated knife to cut the bread into slices.
- You can use a pastry brush to make sure the olive oil covers the entire piece of bread if you like a more uniform flavor.
- A non-traditional but delicious adaptation is to roast your head of garlic and then spread the caramelized garlic on the bread (To roast: Chop off the top of the head of garlic, drizzle with olive oil, and roast at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes).
- Serve the tomato bread as fast as possible to avoid your bread getting soggy.
- Bread: Any loaf of crusty or rustic bread will work. I really like a baguette, but a french loaf or ciabatta bread will work as well. Try to choose a bread with an “open crumb”, meaning a bread with a lot of holes in it to store all of that great flavor! Tomato: I use a Roma Tomato because they are a “paste tomato” meaning that they will leave behind a better textured tomato pulp. Make sure you are getting a fresh, high quality tomato. Bonus points if you have a garden to pick from!
- Salt: I would highly recommend using a flaky sea salt for this recipe. It will make a big flavor and texture difference from table salt!
- Garlic: You can peel a garlic clove and cut it in half for easiest use!
