Bruschetta Ingredients

Method

Bruschetta Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tomatoes

    Dice the fresh tomatoes into small pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Add Seasonings

    Chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the bowl with the tomatoes. Mince the garlic and add it as well. Drizzle in the olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix everything gently.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Baguette

    Slice the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices. Toast the slices on a grill or in the oven until they are golden brown and crispy.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Bruschetta

    Spoon the tomato mixture onto each toasted baguette slice just before serving to prevent sogginess.
