TOMATO BRUSCHETTA



Tomato Bruschetta image

This classic recipe is for lazy summer days that beg for moving slowly and snacking often. Chop tomatoes, place them in a colander, shower them with salt, then make yourself a drink or go for a swim. The longer they drain, the better they'll be. This bruschetta gets better as it sits for a bit, so make it up to an hour ahead. While most bruschetta recipes have you rub a raw garlic clove on toasted bread, this one calls for making a quick infused oil that's stirred into the tomatoes and basil, providing a more delicate garlicky note. Pile it all on toasted bread, and enjoy bite after juicy bite.

Categories     easy, snack, dips and spreads, finger foods, appetizer

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound plum tomatoes (about 4 to 5 large), or another variety of ripe tomatoes
1 teaspoon kosher salt
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 large garlic cloves, minced
8 large basil leaves
Grilled or toasted crusty bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Core and chop the tomatoes, then transfer to a colander over a bowl or in the sink. Add the salt and gently stir. Let drain for up to 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, make the garlic oil: In a small saucepan, warm the olive oil and garlic over low heat until the garlic is softened and fragrant, about 5 minutes, making sure the garlic doesn't brown. Set aside to cool.
  • Roll the basil leaves up and thinly slice crosswise.
  • When the oil is cool and the tomatoes are well drained, combine the tomatoes, garlic oil and basil in a medium bowl. Season with additional salt, to taste. Spoon over toasted bread.

BRUSCHETTA WITH FRESH TOMATO AND BASIL



Bruschetta with Fresh Tomato and Basil image

Provided by Food Network

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 ripe medium tomatoes, about 1/2 pound each, coarsely chopped
1 cup torn basil leaves, firmly packed
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1 clove garlic, pounded into a paste with 1/2 teaspoon salt
12 slices bruschetta

Steps:

  • In a bowl, mix together the tomatoes, basil, olive oil and vinegar. Add 1/4 teaspoon of the garlic paste, and blend well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Let stand at room temperature for 2 hours, if possible.
  • Place the bruschetta on a large platter in a single layer. When ready to serve, drizzle each one with about 1 tablespoon of juice from the bottom of the bowl containing the tomato mixture. With a slotted spoon, strew the tomato mixture over the bruschetta. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your bruschetta will be.
  • Choose a good quality olive oil: Extra virgin olive oil is best.
  • Toast the bread lightly: This will give it a nice crunch and help it to hold up to the toppings.
  • Chop the basil finely: This will help to distribute its flavor evenly throughout the bruschetta.
  • Season the bruschetta to taste: You may want to add a pinch of salt and pepper, or a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
  • Serve the bruschetta immediately: This is when it is at its best.

Conclusion:

Tomato basil bruschetta is a classic Italian appetizer that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for any occasion.
