Pan con Tomate (Bread with Tomato)

Ingredients

• 4 slices Bread
• 1 clove Garlic
• 1 large Ripe Tomato
• 2 tbsp Olive Oil
• pinch Salt

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

1. 1Place the 4 slices of Bread into a toaster and toast on a medium-high setting until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Alternatively, preheat a broiler to high heat (around 260°C / 260°C). Arrange the 4 slices of Bread on a broiler pan and place it 10.16-15.24 cm (10-15 cm) from the heat source, then broil for 2-3 minutes per side, watching carefully until the bread is golden brown.
2. 2Cut the 1 clove of Garlic in half. Take one half and gently rub its cut side over the entire surface of each of the 4 toasted bread slices. You should see and smell the garlic transferring to the bread.
3. 3Cut the 1 large Ripe Tomato in half. Take one half and gently rub its cut side over the entire surface of each of the 4 garlic-rubbed bread slices. The tomato juice and pulp will moisten and flavor the bread.
4. 4Arrange the 4 slices of bread on a serving plate. Drizzle the 2 tbsp of Olive Oil evenly over the tomato-rubbed bread.
5. 5Sprinkle a pinch of Salt evenly over the 4 slices of bread. Serve immediately.
