Bruschetta is a typical appetizer from Italian cuisine, originating from the Lazio region. It consists of toasted rustic bread rubbed with garlic, seasoned with extra virgin olive oil, salt, and black peppercorns. It is simple to prepare and can be customized with the addition of fresh tomatoes, basil, or cheese. Bruschetta is perfect as a light snack before a meal.
Toast the slices of rustic bread on both sides using a grill or toaster
Rub them thoroughly with the garlic cloves that you have previously crushed, then sprinkle with freshly ground salt and pepper and fragrant olive oil
The oil should be virgin or extra virgin: only the 'soma d'aj' Piedmontese bruschetta requires a less flavorful oil
If desired, you can enhance this appetizing snack with sliced tomatoes seasoned with a bit of chopped basil and a pinch of oregano
Wine: Orvieto secco (Lazio)
