Bruschetta
Grilling basics and a trio of toppings for this quick and versatile bread
by Tasha Prysi
As a starter or on the side, bruschetta is an ideal choice for outdoor entertaining: You can make it in minutes, eat it while mingling, and top it to suit everyone's tastes. Just start with Basic Bruschetta and top it as you please.
To top it all off
Use high-quality ingredients and keep it simple. The number of servings you'll get out of each topping recipe listed below will depend on how large your bread slices are and on how you plan to serve the bruschetta. The yield in each recipe should help you plan.
For more on bruschetta, including more toppings recipes, look for Tasha Prysi's article, "Making the Best Bruschetta," in the June/July 2003 issue of Fine Cooking (#58).
