Method

Preparation of Topping

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tomato Mixture

    In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, minced garlic, chopped basil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until well combined. Set aside to allow the flavors to meld.

Grilling Bread

  1. 2

    Slice the Baguette

    Cut the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices.

  2. 3

    Brush with Olive Oil

    Brush both sides of each slice with olive oil.

  3. 4

    Grill the Bread

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Grill the bread slices for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Assembling the Bruschetta

  1. 5

    Top the Grilled Bread

    Remove the grilled bread from the grill and place on a serving platter. Spoon the tomato mixture generously on top of each slice.

  2. 6

    Serve Immediately

    Serve the bruschetta immediately while the bread is still warm.
