Notes
For extra flavour, consider cutting a fresh garlic clove in half and rubbing it over the toasted bread when it come out of the oven.Â
For garnish, a drizzle of balsamic vinegar glaze tastes incredible (it can be a bit messy if drizzled on too early though). I like to just put a bottle by the dish as an option for anyone who wants to drizzle it on their bruschetta.Â
