Fettunta

Born as a way of savoring the year's new olive oil, fettunta is absolutely Tuscan in its simplicity: a slice of coarse country bread toasted until golden and rubbed with a peeled clove of garlic, then doused with abundant olive oil and sprinkled with salt. Literally, fettunta comes from fetta unta, or "oily slice.".
