1. Blanch basil in a 1-quart saucepan of boiling water 15 seconds, then transfer with a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking. Squeeze excess liquid from basil and puree in a blender with garlic, salt, and 3 tablespoons oil.
2. Preheat broiler. Line rack of a small broiler pan with foil, then oil foil.
3. Stir together brown sugar and vinegar until sugar is dissolved, then overlap tomato slices on a large plate and drizzle with vinegar mixture. Season with salt.
