Bruschetta (pronunciation: Brusketta) originated around the 15th century during the Roman era and is derived from the Roman dialect ‘bruscare’ or ‘abbrustolire’ in Italian. This means ‘toasting’ or ‘toasting over cabbage’ which links to toasting the bread and then dipping it in oil. There are many different variations of bruschetta but it will always contain olive oil, garlic and salt as a base. Below is one of the variations on the classic bruschetta with tomatoes.
