Gathering ingredients
- First, gather a baguette, ripe tomatoes, mozzarella, garlic, olive oil, basil, salt and pepper.
- Make sure you have all the ingredients ready before you start the recipe.
- Make sure the ingredients are fresh and of good quality for the best results.
Toasting bread
Cut the baguette into slices of about 1 cm thick. Preheat the oven to 180°C or prepare the grill. Place the baguette slices on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for 5-7 minutes or on the grill until crispy. Serve warm and enjoy!
Cutting tomatoes
Cut the tomatoes into small cubes and put them in a bowl. Then add the minced garlic, minced basil, salt, pepper and a dash of olive oil. Mix everything well so that all the flavors mix. Taste and add more salt, pepper or olive oil to taste if necessary.
Preparing mozzarella
Cut the mozzarella into thin slices or cubes, depending on your preference. For slices, lay the mozzarella horizontally on a cutting board and cut it into even slices with a sharp knife. If you want cubes, first slice the mozzarella and then cut it into equal cubes. This way, they can easily be added to salads or antipasti.
How to make bruschetta
Place the toasted baguette slices on a plate and evenly cover them with the tomato mixture. Then place the mozzarella slices on top of the tomatoes. Avoid overlapping the ingredients for a neat presentation. Serve the bruschetta immediately for an optimal taste experience.
Serve
Serve the bruschetta immediately, so that the bread is still nice and crispy and the mozzarella is slightly melted. Cut the bruschetta into bite-sized pieces and place them on a serving plate. Make sure to serve the dish immediately at the table to maintain the optimal taste experience. Enjoy the delicious combination of fresh ingredients!
