As soon as the bread comes out of the oven (or toaster), rub one side of each slice evenly with a garlic clove. You won't use the entire clove.
Top each slice of toast with a schmear of ricotta cheese, a spoonful of halved cherry tomatoes and several small basil leaves. Finish with a drizzle of aged balsamic and a sprinkling of sea salt and black pepper. Enjoy immediately.
Notes
*Don't have this? Put 1/2 cup regular balsamic in a small saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer until the vinegar thickens (5 to 7 minutes). Let cool and use here.
