I was able to purchase some fresh mozzarella here the other day and it reminded me that I took pictures last December for a Brushetta recipe that I wanted to share. It’s fairly easy and you can prepare it a day in advance and assemble right before serving.
Here’s what you’ll need: French Bread, Olive Oil, Tomatoes, Red Onion, Red Pepper, Garlic, Fresh Basil, Fresh Mozzarella, Ground Pepper, Sea Salt.
Slice the bread about ¾” thick and lightly brush both sides with olive oil. Toast in a 300º (150º C) oven for about 30 minutes, or until no longer soft inside.
Roast the red pepper over an open flame, or under a broiler; turning it as the skin browns. Place it in either a paper or plastic bag and wait for it to cool.
While the bread is being toasted and the pepper roasted; combine the following ingredients in a bowl. (Note: Though you can make this and serve it right away, the flavor is better if you refrigerate it for a few hours or overnight first.)
3 Medium, Ripe Tomatoes (seeds removed and finely chopped)
1/3 to 1/2 Cup Red Onion (finely chopped)
1 ½ Teaspoons Finely Chopped Garlic *
Fresh, Finely Chopped Basil (approximately 1/3 cup)
About 2 Teaspoons Olive Oil, plus additional to brush on bread
Ground Black Pepper (about 10 turns of the pepper mill; or to taste) *
Sea Salt (to taste) *
Top the toasted bread with the tomato mixture.
Place a slice of fresh mozzarella on top of the tomato mixture.
Criss-cross two slices of the roasted red pepper on top…
Ingredients:
One Loaf of French Bread (or a few smaller rolls)
1 Red Pepper
3 Medium, Ripe Tomatoes (seeds removed and finely chopped)
1/3 to 1/2 Cup Red Onion (finely chopped)
1 ½ Teaspoons Finely Chopped Garlic *
Fresh, Finely Chopped Basil (approximately 1/3 cup)
About 2 Teaspoons Olive Oil, plus additional to brush on bread
Ground Black Pepper (about 10 turns of the pepper mill; or to taste) *
Sea Salt (to taste) *
About ½ lb. Fresh Mozzarella (sliced about ¼” thick)
* You can substitute regular salt and pepper.
* You can also use either fresh or store bought jar garlic.
* Although I didn’t use it when I made these, you can add a dash or three of Balsamic Vinegar.
