Toast the bread in the oven or toaster until crisp but NOT brown. Remove from the oven, drizzle with a few drops of olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Slice the tomato and mozzarella and arrange on one slice of bread. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar or balsamic vinegar, season with salt and pepper, and then garnish with basil.
