Bruschetta al Pomodoro is a classic antipasto from Italy that consists of grilled bread, and is topped with ripe tomatoes, fresh basil, garlic, and olive oil. Pronounced ‘broo-SKEH-ta’, this classic Italian appetizer is a perfect way to capture the flavours of summer.
Bruschetta al Pomodoro is remarkably simple, comprised of a toasted (or grilled) slice of bread – preferably a rustic, hardy kind such as Tuscan or Pugliese – rubbed with fresh garlic while still warm, then drizzled with olive oil and topped with marinated tomatoes.
I love the simplicity of this recipe. Simple food made with lots of love and quality ingredients. Bruschetta seems easy to make, and it is indeed not the most difficult meal on earth, but the freshness of the ingredients and right proportions make a huge difference.
