Grilled Tomatoes with Saba and Sea Salt

Saba is a syrupy condiment from Italy made from reduced unfermented grape juice. Balsamic vinegar is a good substitution if reduced until slightly syrupy.

• 
  
  8 small tomatoes (3 to 4 oz. each) cored and halved crosswise
  
  


• 
  
  1 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil
  
  


• 
  
  3 Tbs. saba
  
  


• 
  
  Flaky sea salt, such as Maldon
  
  

Prepare a medium-high gas or charcoal grill fire. Brush the cut sides of the tomatoes with the olive oil. Grill the tomatoes cut side down until charred, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a platter, cut side up. Drizzle the tomatoes with the saba and sprinkle with salt to taste. Serve immediately.
