Contains Gluten and Sulfites
Dice ripe tomatoes (600g) and place them in a bowl. Stack fresh basil (20g) leaves, roll them tightly, and slice them into thin ribbons, then add them to the bowl.
Mince two cloves of the garlic (3). Add the minced garlic (3), extra virgin olive oil (60ml), balsamic vinegar (15ml), salt, and black pepper to the ripe tomatoes (600g) mixture. Toss well to combine.
Let the ripe tomatoes (600g) mixture rest at room temperature for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Slice rustic bread or baguette (12 slices) into 1-centimeter thick slices. Toast the slices in a skillet or under a broiler until golden and crisp, about 5 minutes.
Halve the remaining clove of garlic (3) and rub the cut side lightly over one side of each warm, toasted bread slice.
Spoon the ripe tomatoes (600g) mixture generously over the garlic (3)-rubbed bread slices just before serving.
