Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix the onions, tomatoes, garlic and basil, taking care not to mash or break up the tomatoes too much. Add the balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix again. Cover and chill for at least an hour. This will allow the flavours to soak and blend together.
- Slice the baguette loaf diagonally into 12 thick slices and lightly toast them until they are light brown on both sides. Serve the mixture on the warm slices of bread. If you prefer the mixture at room temperature, remove from the fridge half an hour before serving.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will make a big difference in the taste of your bruschetta. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have a sweet, fragrant smell.
- Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil is the key to a flavorful and authentic bruschetta. Look for a fruity, extra-virgin olive oil that will complement the taste of the tomatoes.
- Don't overcook the tomatoes: You want the tomatoes to be slightly softened but still retain their shape and texture. Cook them over medium heat for just a few minutes, until they are heated through.
- Use a variety of toppings: The classic bruschetta topping is tomatoes, basil, and garlic, but there are many other delicious options. Try adding roasted peppers, olives, artichokes, or even fresh fruit like peaches or strawberries.
- Serve bruschetta immediately: Bruschetta is best enjoyed fresh out of the oven. The bread should be crispy and the tomatoes should be warm and juicy.
Conclusion:
Bruschetta is a delicious and versatile appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and impressive. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack or appetizer, give bruschetta a try!
