Garlic bread, Spanish-style: Rub baguette slices with garlic cloves, brush with extra-virgin olive oil, and grill to a crisp, then rub with cut plum tomatoes -- that's the traditional version of these Catalan toasts. Here, they're given the special-occasion treatment with oven-dried tomatoes, fresh herbs, and other toppings, all inspired by the flavors of the region. This recipe originally appeared inMartha Stewart's Appetizers (Clarkson Potter).

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Toss tomato slices with thyme, 1 tablespoon marjoram, and 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper. Arrange tomato slices in a single layer on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Bake 1 hour.
- Reduce oven temperature to 200 degrees. Continue baking until tomatoes are shriveled, about 2 hours more.
- Heat a grill (or grill pan) to medium-high. (If using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold the palm of your hand 6 inches above grates for just 3 to 4 seconds.) Brush grates with oil. Rub baguette slices with garlic. Brush lightly with remaining 2 tablespoons oil, dividing evenly. Grill baguette slices until crisp, about 1 minute per side. Rub with reserved plum tomato halves. Divide dried tomato slices evenly among toasts, then add toppings as desired. Garnish with remaining 2 tablespoons marjoram.
