Moroccan Tomato Toast

1 cup (140 g) finely chopped red onion

1/2 tsp. cumin seeds

1/4 tsp. fresh coriander seeds

4 slices thick-cut sourdough bread

Butter, for the bread

2 cups (280 g) chopped in-season tomatoes

3 T. olive oil

1/4 tsp. flaky sea salt, such as Maldon

Fresh flowering or young herbs, such as cilantro, chopped

Light honey, such as wildflower, for drizzling

 

Soak the onion in a bowl of ice water to take out the bite, 5 to 10 minutes.  Toast the cumin and coriander in a dry skillet over high heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Smash slightly on a cutting board with the bottom of your (cooled) skillet, or with the back of your knife.  Toast the bread. Spread the toast with a thin schmear of butter or drizzle of oil. Drain the onion well. Toss the cumin and coriander, onion, tomatoes, oil, and salt together in a bowl.  Stir in herbs.  Spoon over toast and drizzle very lightly with a bit of honey.
