Ingredients

  • 1 lb of petite heirloom tomatoes, sliced in half
  • ¼ cup of freshly chopped basil leaves
  • A drizzle of truffle-infused olive oil (like Olevano brand)
  • Pinch of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to your liking
  • Additional olive oil as necessary
  • 1 tbsp of finely chopped garlic
  • A loaf of French baguette, sliced into thick 1-inch pieces
  • 1 clove of garlic, peeled and cut in half

Step 1

Mix together the vibrant heirloom tomatoes with freshly chopped basil, a drizzle of luxurious truffle oil, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper, allowing the flavors to mingle and develop. Let it sit for a moment.

Step 2

In a generous skillet, warm up some fragrant olive oil and toss in the chopped garlic, letting it sizzle and infuse the oil. Take the baguette slices and pan-fry them until they turn a beautiful golden brown on each side, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. For an extra garlicky kick, rub each side of the baguette with a halved garlic clove.

Step 3

Now, the exciting part - spoon the luscious tomato mixture over the crispy baguette slices, making sure each piece gets a generous topping of the flavorful mixture. Enjoy this delectable dish bursting with colors and flavors!

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your tomatoes fresh and flavorful by storing them at room temperature away from direct sunlight. This way, they'll ripen evenly and develop their full taste.
  2. 2. To preserve the freshness of your basil, place the stems in a glass of water like a bouquet. This not only adds a touch of natural beauty to your kitchen but also keeps the herb crisp and ready to use.
