Method

The steps.

  1. 01

    Core and dice the tomatoes into a bowl. Season generously with salt and let them sit for 10 minutes to release their juices.

  2. 02

    Add the crushed garlic, torn basil, vinegar and 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Toss gently and taste for seasoning.

  3. 03

    Toast the sourdough slices until golden and crisp at the edges.

  4. 04

    While still warm, rub each slice lightly with the cut side of the halved garlic clove, then brush with olive oil.

  5. 05

    Pile the tomato mixture generously on top of each toast.

  6. 06

    Finish with a final pour of your best olive oil, a pinch of flaky salt, and a grind of pepper. Serve immediately.

Chef's Tips

Small details, big difference.

  • Season the tomatoes early — those 10 minutes of salting are what make the difference.
  • For a more luxurious bite, rest each dressed toast for a minute so the oil soaks into the crust.
