Method
- 1.Toast the bread until it's properly crisp on both sides. Under a grill or in a dry pan over medium-high heat.
- 2.While still hot, rub one side of each piece firmly with a peeled garlic clove. The toast acts as a grater.

If you don't have…
- good bread: any bread. The toasting will improve it
- canned tomatoes: 2 ripe fresh tomatoes, diced; in winter, canned is honestly better
