FRESH ROMA TOMATO, BASIL & OREGANO BRUSCHETTA



Fresh Roma Tomato, Basil & Oregano Bruschetta image

This is a great appetizer, or accompaniment to any pasta dish, especially when made with vine ripened roma tomatoes. It is best with fresh herbs, but you can substitute dried in a pinch. I have experimented over the years with several different bruschetta recipes and finally came up with this version. The final result is definitely worth the work!

MUFFULETTA BRUSCHETTA



Muffuletta Bruschetta image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     appetizer

Time 35m

Yield 40 bruschetta

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup pitted Kalamata olives
1 cup pimiento-stuffed Manzanilla olives
1/2 cup roughly chopped roasted red pepper (about 1 whole pepper, jarred or fresh)
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon roughly chopped fresh oregano
Freshly ground black pepper
1 baguette (about 24 inches long), sliced on the bias into forty 1/4-inch-thick rounds
Twenty 1/4-inch slices fresh mozzarella (1 1/2 pounds), cut into half-moons
10 thin slices provolone cheese (7 ounces), cut into quarters
10 thin slices mortadella (3 ounces), cut into quarters
10 thin slices capicola (3 ounces), cut into quarters
10 thin slices Genoa salami (3 ounces), cut into quarters
40 small fresh basil leaves

Steps:

  • For the olive spread: Combine the Kalamata and Manzanilla olives, red pepper, olive oil, vinegar, parsley and oregano in a food processor. Pulse 8 to 10 times, until evenly incorporated but still chunky (nothing larger than pea-size). If not using immediately, transfer the spread to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days. (Makes 2 cups.)
  • For the bruschetta: Lay the baguette slices on two baking sheets. Top each slice with 1 teaspoon of the olive spread. Then layer the slices with a piece of mozzarella, followed a piece each of provolone, mortadella, capicola and salami. (At this point, the bruschetta can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours; remove from the fridge 30 minutes prior to serving.) Finish the bruschetta with a small dollop of olive spread, and garnish with a basil leaf. Serve immediately.

Time 1h30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons olive oil
5 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 pint red grape tomatoes, halved lengthwise
1 whole baguette or crusty loaf
1 pint yellow grape tomatoes, halved lengthwise

Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 stick butter

Steps:

  • Add the red and yellow tomatoes, balsamic and basil to the bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to combine, and then taste and add more basil if needed, and more salt if needed (don't over salt, though!) Cover and refrigerate for an hour or two if you have the time.
  • Cut the baguette into diagonal slices to allow for the most surface area possible. Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet and grill half the bread on both sides, making sure they're nice and buttery. Cook until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the other half of the bread.
  • To serve, give the tomato mixture a final stir, and then spoon generously over the slices of bread. Serve on a big platter as a first course or appetizer.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality bread: A hearty, rustic bread like a ciabatta or sourdough is the perfect base for bruschetta. Make sure the bread is fresh and crusty.
  • Grill or toast the bread: Grilling or toasting the bread will help to bring out its flavor and make it crispy. If you are grilling the bread, brush it with olive oil before grilling.
  • Use fresh, ripe tomatoes: The tomatoes are the star of the show in bruschetta, so make sure they are ripe and flavorful. Roma tomatoes are a good choice because they are meaty and have few seeds.
  • Chop the tomatoes finely: Finely chopping the tomatoes will help them to release their juices and flavor. You can also use a food processor to chop the tomatoes, but be careful not to over-process them.
  • Season the tomatoes: Season the tomatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and oregano. You can also add other herbs like basil or thyme.
  • Let the tomatoes marinate: Letting the tomatoes marinate for at least 30 minutes will help them to develop more flavor. You can also marinate the tomatoes overnight for even more flavor.
  • Top the bread with the tomatoes and other toppings: Once the tomatoes are marinated, top the toasted bread with the tomatoes and any other desired toppings, such as cheese, prosciutto, or avocado.

Conclusion:

Bruschetta is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and visually appealing. Experiment with different toppings and flavors to find your favorite combination.
