A delightful twist on the classic Catalan Tomato Bread, this recipe adds a Mediterranean flair with a touch of herbs and cheese.
Preheat your oven to broil setting.
Ensure the oven rack is positioned about 4 inches from the heat source for even toasting.
Slice the bread horizontally and place it cut side up on a baking sheet.
Use a serrated knife for clean cuts and to avoid squishing the bread.
Broil the bread until the surface is golden and crisp, about 2 minutes.
Keep an eye on the bread to prevent burning.
Cut the garlic cloves in half and rub them over the toasted bread surface.
Rubbing garlic directly onto the bread infuses it with a robust flavor.
Drizzle the bread with olive oil evenly.
Use a brush for a more even distribution of the oil.
Cut the tomatoes in half and rub their cut sides over the bread, squeezing slightly to release the juices.
Choose ripe tomatoes for maximum flavor and juiciness.
Sprinkle grated cheese and fresh basil leaves over the bread.
For a melted cheese effect, return the bread to the oven for a minute.
Slice the bread into wedges and serve warm.
Serve immediately to enjoy the crisp texture and fresh flavors.
