Do you have a box grater?  Good bread?  Some good tomatoes?  Garlic?  Good tasting olive oil?  Sea salt?  Pepper?

Good.  Try this:

Slice your bread and throw it in the over or under the broiler to toast a bit.  Whilst that’s getting toasty:
Put box grater in a bowl.  Using the big holes, shred as many tomatoes as you’d like.  Discard whatever larger bits of tomato skin you find hanging out on the side of the grater.  Using the smaller holes, shred your garlic - one clove per tomato seems to be just right, but if you like garlic like I do, add more.

Check your bread.  Does it need to be turned over?  Is it done?

Scrape all the good stuff off the inside/outside of your box grater.  Sprinkle some sea salt into the tomato and garlic mixture.  Add a bit of pepper if you want.  Then add in as much olive oil as you like - I think about 2-3 tablespoons per tomato is a good start, but it is up to you.

Stir well, then spoon and spread on your toasty bread.

If you mixed right, you’ll find yourself in an blissful state, maybe with a hankering for a nice glass of wine, some cheese, and maybe a few olives or a little slice of tortilla. If you don’t find yourself in that sort of mind, add more garlic or olive oil as you see fit.

This is also lovely spooned over eggs.

I suspect that most of you reading this have made something like this, but I find that I often forget these sort of simple and delicious ways of highlighting the taste of fresh produce - something I find myself savoring as summer ends here in Minnesota.
