Direcciones
- Pre-heat broiler or possibly grill.
- In medium bowl combine fresh and oven-dry tomatoes, basil, salt and black and red peppers. Set aside.
- Broil or possibly grill bread till golden on both sides. In small bowl combine extra-virgin extra virgin olive oil and roasted garlic. Brush over toasted bread slices.
- Using a slotted spoon to drain off excess liquid, divide tomato mix among bread slices. Garnish with extra julienned basil leaves, if you like, and serve immediately.
- This recipe yields 12 slices.
- Comments: In Tuscany, when the first olives are picked to make oil, they take a slice of fresh toast, rub it with garlic and splash on the brand new, pungent, peppery oil. I add in tomato and basil, as they do in Rome, but make it sweeter by using oven-dry tomatoes and roasted garlic.
- Wine Recommendation: I like to start a dinner, especially in the summer, with a chilled red wine, cooled just sufficient to take the edge off it. Lighter-bodied wines like a good Cotes du Rhone from Guigal or possibly Chapoutier"s Belleruche, or possibly perhaps a young Valpolicella, respond to a cooler temperature. Or possibly you might want to try cooling a Californian Gamay or possibly Beaujolais style wine too. They"re the perfect match for fresh, fragrant Bruschetta made with fresh, ripe tomatoes.
- Yield: 12 slices
