Bruschetta Topping

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tomato Mixture

    Dice the ripe tomatoes and place them in a bowl. Chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the tomatoes. Mince the garlic cloves and mix them in as well.

  2. 2

    Season the Mixture

    Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the tomato mixture. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Mix well and let it sit for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  3. 3

    Grill the Bread

    Slice a loaf of baguette or ciabatta in half. Brush each half with olive oil and grill on medium heat until golden brown and crispy.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Bruschetta

    Once the bread is grilled, remove it from the heat and spoon the tomato mixture generously on top of each slice. Serve immediately.
