Bruschetta — a classic snack originally from sunny Italy, which is a slice of dried bread, dried or toasted in butter until light and crisp. And then you can experiment: spread on bread, for example, chopped ripe fresh or dried tomatoes with fresh basil, or roast beef, cheese and olives... The filling can be very diverse.

Bruschettas are referred to as antipasto dishes. This is not a movement against another famous Italian dish - pasta, as many people think. Translated from Italian, antipasto comes from the words from anti « to» + pasta «food ». That is, what is served before the main dishes, in Russian speaking, is an appetizer.

For bruschetta, you can use wheat or rye baguette. If there is no baguette, it does not matter. A regular loaf, cut into narrow slices, will do.
