Bruschetta Topping

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tomato Mixture

    Chop the fresh tomatoes and basil leaves and combine them in a bowl. Add olive oil, salt, and black pepper to taste. Mix well and let it sit for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  2. 2

    Toast the Bread

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice a baguette or any crusty bread into 1/2 inch slices. Arrange them on a baking sheet and drizzle with a little olive oil. Toast in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Bruschetta

    Remove the toasted bread from the oven. Spoon the tomato mixture generously on each slice of bread. Drizzle with balsamic glaze before serving.
