SLOW-ROASTED TOMATO & GARLIC BRUSCHETTA



Slow-Roasted Tomato & Garlic Bruschetta image

Slow-roasting cherry tomatoes brings out such sweet, intense flavor. Mixed with tons of roasted garlic and fresh basil, then spooned over garlicky golden toasts, this bruschetta is familiar yet special.

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 pints cherry tomatoes (cut in half)
1 head garlic (cloves separated but skin stays on)
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (divided)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper + more to taste
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup basil leaves (chiffonaded)
1 French bread baguette (cut into 1/2-inch slices (for about 36 pieces))
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 to 3 garlic cloves (peeled and halved)

Steps:

  • Make the tomato topping. Preheat oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Tumble the tomatoes onto a large rimmed baking sheet. Toss in the garlic. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Stir until well-coated. Bake until tomatoes have shrunken a bit and look almost dry around the edges, about 90 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and let cool. Remove garlic from the pan. Squeeze cloves out onto a cutting board. Chop up the garlic (as much as you can; it will be soft). Add to a medium bowl.
  • Drizzle balsamic vinegar over the tomatoes still on the cookie sheet. Using a spatula or wooden spoon, scrape up and stir the tomatoes, using the vinegar to help loosen up some of the dried-on tomato juices. Scrape tomatoes and juice into the bowl. Stir in basil and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired. Set aside.
  • Make the toasts. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Brush a large cookie sheet with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and lay the slices of bread on the sheet. Brush the tops of each slice with olive oil. Bake until golden brown around the edges, 7-9 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Rub each piece on both sides with cut sides of garlic.
  • Serve. Spoon the tomatoes over the bread to serve, or set the bread and tomatoes on the appetizer table for guests to assemble themselves.

  • Copyright© 2002 Television Food Network, G.P., All Rights Reserved
  • Roasted Garlic:
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Rub off any loose papery skin from the garlic, and trim about a 1/2 inch off the top of each head, to expose the cloves. Set the garlic snugly in an ovenproof baking dish just large enough to hold them. Drizzle with the oil and season with the salt and pepper. Cover with foil and cook for about 40 minutes. Remove foil and bake until the heads are soft and the tops golden brown, another 30 minutes. Allow garlic to cool.
  • Serve the garlic whole for a rustic garnish, or break the heads apart and squeeze the garlic out of skins to eat the whole clove. To store the garlic, place it in a container and cover with olive oil. Store in the refrigerator for up to a week. Use skinned roasted garlic to season mashed potatoes, in salad dressings, to flavor and thicken sauces, or on sauteed or roasted vegetables.

Winter Minestrone and Garlic Bruschetta image

Provided by Ina Garten

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

Good olive oil
4 ounces pancetta, 1/2-inch-diced
1 1/2 cups chopped yellow onions
2 cups (1/2-inch-diced) carrots (3 carrots)
2 cups (1/2-inch-diced) celery (3 stalks)
2 1/2 cups (1/2-inch-diced) peeled butternut squash
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic (4 cloves)
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
One 26-ounce can or box diced tomatoes, such as Pomi
6 to 8 cups chicken stock, preferably homemade
1 bay leaf
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 15-ounce can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
2 cups cooked small pasta, such as tubetti
8 to 10 ounces fresh baby spinach leaves
1/2 cup good dry white wine
2 tablespoons store-bought pesto
Garlic Bruschetta, recipe follows
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese, for serving
1 French baguette
Good olive oil
1 clove garlic, cut in half lengthwise

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy pot or Dutch oven. Add the pancetta and cook over medium-low heat for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned. Add the onions, carrots, celery, squash, garlic, and thyme and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, until the vegetables begin to soften. Add the tomatoes, 6 cups of the chicken stock, the bay leaf, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper to the pot. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. Discard the bay leaf. Add the beans and cooked pasta and heat through. The soup should be quite thick but if it's too thick, I add more chicken stock.
  • Just before serving, reheat the soup, add the spinach, and toss with 2 big spoons (like tossing a salad). Cook just until the leaves are wilted. Stir in the white wine and pesto. Depending on the saltiness of the chicken stock, add another teaspoon or two of salt to taste. Serve large shallow bowls of soup with a bruschetta on top. Sprinkled with Parmesan cheese, drizzle with olive oil and serve hot.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Slice the baguette at a 45 degree angle in 1/2-inch-thick slices. Brush both sides of the bread with olive oil and bake for 6 minutes, until lightly toasted. Take the slices out of the oven and rub the surface of each one with the cut clove of garlic.

ITALIAN BRUSCHETTA WITH HERBED MOZZARELLA & GARLIC TOMATOES



Italian Bruschetta With Herbed Mozzarella & Garlic Tomatoes image

A light and filling Italian bruchetta inspired by cool mornings al fresco in a little Italian cafe in a little area tucked just outside the city. (TIP: Use Masterfoods' Mixed Herbs as an alternative to all the dried herbs. Also, If you don't savour the taste of coriander, omit and use freshly chopped basil & mint instead.)

Provided by Deux Petits Chefs

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

7 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 -4 sprigs fresh coriander, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1 pinch dried marjoram
1 pinch dried sage
5 garlic cloves, crushed
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, grated
2 large tomatoes, sliced
2 slices focaccia bread, thick (or white rustic bread.)
1 pinch salt
1 pinch cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large grill pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  • When oil is hot, press slices of bread or foccacia firmly against the grill. Turn the flame on high until the bread has become slightly and pleasantly streaked with char lines.
  • Heat 5 tablespoons of olive oil on medium heat, and add crushed garlic.
  • Tilt the pan upwards so that the oil collects near the end and 'deep-fries' the garlic until golden brown, on medium to high heat. (this ensures a more wholesome garlic infusion in the oil as you're using a grill pan).
  • Set golden brown garlic aside.
  • In a small bowl, mix all the herbs together.
  • Put in tomato slices in the grill pan and sprinkle the mixed herbs liberally and all over the tomatoes.
  • Season with salt and pepper. If you have a cover for the grill pan, do so and let grill on a soft flame for 5 minutes or so. If not, leave to grill for about 7 minutes.
  • When the tomatoes are soft, but still retaining their shape - or the time has elapsed, add the grated mozzarella cheese.
  • Leave for another 5 - 10 minutes, or until cheese has melted and is bubbling.
  • Quickly (before the melted cheese hardens), scoop the cheese covered tomatoes out, and place side by side, slightly overlapped, on the grilled bread. (I find using a fork and a spoon helps to scoop the tomatoes out without breaking them.).
  • Season with more salt and pepper, and add chopped fresh coriander herb on the bruchetta.
  • Serve immediately.
