Bruschetta Options

discuss your love for it, homemade or dining out!




"A simple Bruschetta is a simple dish: simply purchase some hard bread from your local Italian style Deli or Market (if too hard to bite, run under water for 4-5seconds) and tomatoes, a wide range of herbs (basil, oregano, parsley), olive oil, salt and pepper. If you want a stronger flavor, add onion and fresh garlic. Dice all the vegies, chop the herbs medium-fine. Then mix in a bowl add light olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. You can also add balsamic vinegar but add that right before serving as it will discolor the light vegetables. Toast the bread to just warm and then spoon the mixture on the bread. Garnish with olive oil. Serve with salt."

^Bruschetta pizza is awesome.

I prefer the way my brother's aunt makes it (she's Italian, which helps). I think she puts a little bit of red wine it, if memory serves.
