Tomato Bruschetta

Bruschetta, at its simplest, is grilled bread rubbed with garlic and drizzled with olive oil, but it can also be prepared with a variety of toppings. This classic version, popular in both Umbria and Tuscany, demands the best-quality ingredients: a crusty country-style bread, ripe red tomatoes, freshly picked basil and the best extra-virgin olive oil your budget will allow.
