1. 01

   Toast the Bread

   Toast the bread slices until they're crispy and golden. If you're using an oven, set it to 400°F; otherwise, a toaster works just fine. Keep an eye on them, as toasting time varies depending on your bread's thickness and type.
2. 02

   Rub with Garlic

   Take a garlic clove, cut it in half, and rub the cut side all over the warm, toasted bread. The goal is to infuse the bread with that fresh, pungent garlic aroma.
3. 03

   Rub with Tomato

   Next, take a tomato half and rub its cut side generously over the same piece of bread. Press gently to release the bright, sweet juices, letting them soak into the warm toast.
4. 04

   Drizzle Oil and Salt

   Finish each slice with a generous splash of extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of sea salt.
5. 05

   Serve Immediately

   Repeat the garlic, tomato, oil, and salt steps for all remaining bread slices. Serve them immediately, while the bread is still warm and holds its crisp texture.
