How to Prep
- 1Toss tomatoes with basil, a minced garlic clove, half the oil, and a little flaky salt; let them sit and get juicy while you cook โ never refrigerate.
- 2Warm the beans with rosemary, a garlic clove, and a splash of water; smash roughly with a fork and loosen with oil.
- 3Sear the mushrooms hard with the last garlic; splash in the balsamic at the end and let it glaze.
- 4Grill or broil the bread until deeply charred at the edges; rub every slice with the raw garlic clove while hot.
- 5Build the board: two slices per topping, chili flakes on the beans, the tomato bowl's juices spooned over last.
