Grate the tomatoes. Cut it in half and grate it carefully on a grater until you are only left with the skin. Discard the skin.
Strain the tomatoes. If the tomato is too liquidy it may make the bread soggy. If you are using hard bread, you can leave it unstrained. *You can drink the saved tomato juice.
Place the grated tomatoes in a bowl and add a pinch of salt and 1 ½ tsp olive oil.
Toast the bread and rub some garlic on it.
Spoon the tomato on the bread. Optional: drizzle 1/2 tsp olive oil on each slice before serving.
