Instructions
If we have the ability to roast our slice of bread over open fire like our favorite barbecue then fire it up. Otherwise use any available method to roast the bread, be that a brustolina grill, dedicated toaster o the broiler in our oven. We can also make toast in any of our trusty skillet with a tablespoon of oil, one side at a time.
While the bread is toasting, de-seed the tomatoes. This can be done in various ways but the fastest is to cut the tomatoes in half horizontally then squeeze out the seed and juice by hand.
Chop the tomato up into rough, about hazelnut sized pieces.
Mix it with salt and pepper to taste and if desired with some olive oil too. Set it aside until it is served. If it is not used immediately, keep it in an airtight container.
Once the bread is done, rub garlic on one side then drizzle some extra virgin olive oil on. Top it with the chopped tomato es and/or any other topping of choice.
