Preparation

Note from Ricardo

The term Italian bruschetta (pronounced "brousketta") comes from the bruciare verb meaning "roast" and traditionally refers to a slice of toasted bread, rubbed with a clove of garlic and brushed with olive oil. Today there are several variations, and you can put just about anything you like: chopped tomatoes, ham, cheese or even mushrooms.
