Ingredients

  • 2-4 Tomatoes (if roma, use 4. If Large beefsteak, 2 will work)
  • 4 tbsp Good quality olive oil
  • 2 tsp celtic sea salt If you don't have celtic or kosher (rough) salt, reduce salt to 1 tsp.
  • 1 tsp fresh basil, ripped or finely chopped
  • 1 tsp Spanish paprika optional
  • 1 loaf french bread

Instructions

  • Cut bread in half, and then into slices (or cut into slices if your loaf of bread isn't very tall.)
  • Wash tomatoes well.
  • Generously spread olive oil over bread and bake at 350 for about 10 minutes until crispy and lightly browned.
  • Place a mesh strainer over a bowl and grate (with a cheese grater) the tomatoes until you're left with just the tops and some of the peel.
  • Salt and season the tomato pulp while in the strainer, lightly stirring to make sure it is fully absorbed.
  • When toasts are lightly browned, remove from oven and spread tomato mixture on top.
  • Enjoy!
