Buongiorno to all food lovers! Whether for an aperitif or as part of a dinner accompanied by a good salad, there is no need to introduce bruschettas: these slices of bread that are at once crunchy, melt-in-the-mouth & soft, and smell so Italian. You can never get enough of the classic bruschetta with beautiful garden tomatoes, sprinkled with melted mozzarella, generously drizzled with olive oil and flavored with garlic and basil. There is nothing like it to bring happiness to your plates!
At Oé, we opted for the classic version of bruschetta. But nothing stops you from letting your creativity speak by trying new gourmet combinations for an even more intense explosion of flavor in your mouth by adding pickled vegetables and opting for stronger cheeses such as goat cheese, Parmesan, or Roquefort for the more daring.
Bruschetta recipe
Ingredients: (for 4 people)
- 4 large slices of country bread
- 2 tomatoes
- 200g of mozzarella
- 5 or 6 large basil leaves
- 1 clove of garlic
- Olive oil
- Salt, pepper
Preparation:
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Slice the tomatoes and mozzarella into rounds and chop the basil.
- Using a brush, coat the slices of bread with olive oil and put them in the oven for about ten minutes until they are crispy. Once removed, rub them with the clove of garlic.
- To assemble the bruschettas: spread the tomatoes and half of the mozzarella on the bread. Put them back in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes so that the cheese melts.
- Then remove the slices of bread and add the rest of the cold mozzarella (the goal is to have a blend of flavors between the melted, warm mozzarella and the much creamier cold one) and the basil.
Enjoy without further ado accompanied by a salad and a small glass of wine!
Food and wine pairing to enjoy your bruschettas
Rosé wine now finds its place on tables all year round. It is actually a very close cousin of white wine, only slightly colored during pressing or tank bleeding (when part of the red wine tank is drawn off during maceration). By the way, don't hesitate to play a game of guessing the color of the wine with your eyes closed (without cheating, of course) or even better, by serving the bottle hidden in a sock and wearing sunglasses... You will have quite a few surprises! Our Oé rosés, Le Corbières and Le Méditerranée will be perfect served well chilled. Buon Appetito!
