Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes for the best bruschetta. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and slightly soft to the touch.
  • Use a good quality olive oil. Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice, as it has a fruity flavor that will complement the other ingredients in the bruschetta.
  • Toast the bread before adding the toppings. This will help it to crisp up and hold its shape.
  • Don't overload the bread with toppings. You want each bite to be a balanced combination of flavors.
  • Serve the bruschetta immediately after it is made. This will prevent the bread from getting soggy.
