Product Information

To get started, you’ll need only a few things: diced tomatoes, fresh chopped basil, balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix everything together in a medium bowl and that’s it! You’re done. Serve right away, or cover and refrigerate until needed. The longer the ingredients mingle, the better it gets. You can prepare the tomato topping up to 24 hours before you plan on serving it, making bruschetta perfect for entertaining! Store the tomato mixture in an airtight container and keep it in the fridge until you’re ready to top your toasts. Prepare the Bruschetta Topping: Toss the diced tomatoes with garlic, olive oil, grated parmesan, basil, vinegar, and seasonings. Mix everything together, then cover the bowl and place it into the fridge to chill while you prepare the toasts. Traditional bruschetta is actually a two part thing: bread with the delicious tomato based topping. The thin crisp of the tortilla chip makes this a very fun and delicious twist on the traditional bruschetta you’ve always had. Instead of putting cheese on top of the bruschetta, we have melted in onto the chips. Yum! Alternatively, you can use a griddle or grill pan or indoor grill/ panini press. Can you enjoy bruschetta warm?

Think of diced ripe tomatoes that are swimming in tomato juices and olive oil infused with garlic and fresh basil. Yes, this bruschetta dip is that delicious. Transfer the bread to the prepared baking tray and toast it in the oven for about 10-15 min until golden brown, turning halfway through.No need to peel them or seed them. But if using large tomatoes, you might want to remove the excess water from the centre that dilutes juice and flavor. Don’t skip the marinading time as it will allow all the ingredients to soak and blend for overall better flavor.

Brushing the bread slices with olive oil helps your toasts become the best, crunchiest versions of themselves. The seasoned oil allows the bread to toast up crisp, while giving flavor. How to Make BruschettaMaking homemade bruschetta is one of the main reasons I started gardening many years ago. I really wanted the fresh Roma tomatoes and garden grown basil so I could make my own bruschetta. Toast the Bread: Arrange the bread slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and bake the slices in a 425°F oven. Flip the toasts about halfway through so that both sides get evenly toasted. Bruschetta (often spelled like brushetta or bruchetta, too) is an Italian antipasto (starter) dish consisting of grilled bread topped with various toppings. The most common form is rubbed with garlic and topped with olive oil and salt. However, there are several variations, including tomato bruschetta and others with beans, other veggies, cheese, and even meats. The best types of tomatoes for bruschetta are Roma. Using fresh, juicy and ripe tomatoes will give you the best bruschetta. Just remember, good tomatoes equals good bruschetta. Alternatively, a small spreading of vegan ricotta or cream cheese below the tomato topping will also taste delicious.

This is absolutely delicious and as goof or better than Italian restaurants offer! I had an abundance of cherry tomatoes looking for a place to shine and it worked beautifully. I actually served a couple of slices of this alongside panko-crusted salmon, so it was a side dish instead of a starter. It worked great and made for a colorful plate. I like having this at home as it is kind of messy to eat at a restaurant. With tomato season around the corner, it’s time for one of my favorite warm-weather appetizers: bruschetta! This easy bruschetta recipe is made with juicy ripe tomatoes, fresh basil, and zesty balsamic vinegar. Piled on top of a crunchy toasted bread slice, what’s not to love? While both are Italian in origin and consist of toasted bread with a topping, the differences lie in the bread used and the toasting method. For larger tomatoes, you may want to blanch them (for 1 minute in boiling water- after cutting a tiny ‘X’ at the base), then peel them. Chop in half, remove most of the seeds, then finely dice the tomato. If you like nachos, then you will love this fun bruschetta twist. The melted mozzarella on the salty chips is simply addicting. The fresh tasting tomato bruschetta is the perfect compliment!

Storage

Finely chop the basil and garlic, then add them to the tomatoes along with the balsamic vinegar, sea salt, ground pepper, and about 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Give the Tomatoes Enough Time to Marinate: It’s important to chill the bruschetta topping in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (15 minutes in an absolute pinch!). This is what lets all the flavors mingle and mellow out. Budget the time accordingly, and don’t skip this step! This dish originally came about as a way to salvage stale bread- however, these days, you can make it with fresh and slightly stale bread, and it will be delicious either way!
