Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 lb tomatoes (cherry or roma- perfectly ripe)
1/2 lb mozzarella (fresh)
8 leaves basil (large)
1 tbsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1 baguette
1/4 cup butter (melted)
salt to taste
black pepper to taste
balsamic vinegar or balsamic glaze (to drizzle )

Steps:

  • Slice the top off of the tomatoes, then cut in half. Remove as many seeds as you can, then cut the tomatoes into small pieces and put them in a large bowl.

BRUSCHETTA WITH FRESH MOZZARELLA



Bruschetta with Fresh Mozzarella image

Bruschetta is a version of garlic bread (garlic toast, really), which is good by me because I think garlic should be its own food group. It's great in just about everything. Fresh mozzarella is the stuff that comes in little round tubs of brine, not the stuff that comes shrink-wrapped and that you put on pizza. It's soft and creamy and tastes amazing with the crispy bread, garlic, tomatoes, and basil.

Yield makes about 40 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (1-pound) French baguette
1/4 cup olive oil
4 cloves garlic
8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese
4 tomatoes
1 (2/3-ounce) package basil
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • Cut the baguette into 1/4-to 3/8-inch-thick slices and place on a baking sheet. Brush the bread with the olive oil and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until light brown. Peel one of the cloves of garlic and rub it over the warm bread slices.
  • Cut the mozzarella into 1/4-inch cubes. Cut the tomatoes in half, remove the seeds by scraping them out of the tomato with a small tool or your finger, and dice into 1/4-inch pieces. Coarsely chop the basil. Peel and finely chop the remaining 3 cloves of garlic or pass them through a garlic press.
  • Combine the mozzarella, tomatoes, basil, and chopped garlic in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.
  • Spoon some of the tomato mixture onto each piece of toasted bread and serve immediately.
  • You may wonder where to find fresh mozzarella cheese. Many grocery stores now have self-serve olive bars that often include fresh mozzarella; otherwise, check the deli counter. They usually have fresh mozzarella that's quite a bit cheaper than prepackaged versions. Plus, you can get exactly the amount you need.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes for the best flavor.
  • If the tomatoes are too watery, drain them on paper towels before using.
  • Toast the bread until it is golden brown and crispy.
  • Use a good quality olive oil.
  • Season the tomatoes with salt, pepper, and basil before topping the bread.
  • Add fresh mozzarella cheese for a classic bruschetta.
  • Experiment with different toppings, such as roasted vegetables, grilled meats, or fresh herbs.
  • Serve bruschetta immediately after it is made.

Conclusion:

Bruschetta is a delicious and versatile appetizer that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it classic or with a twist, bruschetta is sure to please.
