Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
- Arrange the tomatoes, cut-side up, in a single layer on a parchment or foil-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt. Bake until slightly shriveled but still plump, about 5 hours. Layer them with the herb sprigs in a container, add olive oil to cover, seal tightly and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Brush both sides of the bread slices with some of the flavored olive oil and place on a baking sheet. Bake until golden, about 7 minutes, turning once about halfway through. While the toasts are hot, rub both sides with the whole garlic clove, placing them back on the baking sheet as you work. Leave the oven on.
- Put a tomato and a small slice of cheese on each toast - it's yummy either with the tomato on the cheese or with the cheese on top. Bake just until cheese starts to melt, about 3 minutes. Serve warm.

Tips:
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The fresher and more flavorful the tomatoes, the better your salsa will be. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and free of blemishes.
- Choose the right type of tomatoes: There are many different types of tomatoes available, each with its own unique flavor and texture. For salsa, you'll want to use a variety that is both flavorful and firm, such as Roma tomatoes or tomatoes on the vine.
- Dice the tomatoes evenly: This will help ensure that the salsa has a consistent texture and flavor.
- Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs and spices can add a lot of flavor to your salsa. Some good options include cilantro, basil, oregano, garlic, and cumin.
- Season the salsa to taste: Once you've added all of the ingredients to your salsa, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or lime juice depending on your personal preference.
- Chill the salsa before serving: Chilling the salsa for at least 30 minutes before serving will help the flavors to meld and develop.
