Bruschetta Topping

Method

Preparation and Assembly

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tomato Mixture

    Dice the Roma tomatoes and place them in a mixing bowl. Add finely chopped basil leaves, minced garlic, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Toast the Bread

    Slice a baguette or ciabatta into 1/2 inch thick slices. Brush each slice with olive oil and toast them in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Bruschetta

    Once the bread is toasted, top each slice with the tomato mixture. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
