Mozzarella, Pesto & Tomato Bruschetta
Sundays were made for bruschetta – all I did was use a slice each of a fabulous Pane Pugliese – available in Waitrose and lots of delis – toasted lightly on both sides then spread with a generous amount of a wonderful basil pesto – Pesto alla Genovese – or you could use one of your choice even a black or red pesto would be fine.
I sliced 4 San Marzano tomatoes in half and added them next. Then I sliced a ball of a good mozzarella and draped it over the tomatoes. Pop it under the hot grill for a minute or so until the moz just starts to melt – then remove and sprinkle a little black pepper and rock salt over it before adding a few fresh basil leaves.
It is bliss – each mouthful is a blessing. Make these soon. Please.
