Diets Is it pronounced “broo-shetta” or “broos-ketta”? Even among the Italians I asked, there were different opinions. Whatever you call it, everyone will agree that this is a delicious way to eat challah! Traditional Italian bruschetta is toasted slices of bread topped with a fresh tomato salsa. Since we’re already creating new traditions, why not go exotic with a tropical salsa option as well? This is a great treat for Sunday brunch, but if you toast the challah before Shabbos, you can enjoy it for shalosh seudos on a long summer Shabbos day.
1 loaf challah
Tuscanini Olive Oil, to drizzle
6 plum tomatoes, diced
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup shredded Tuscanini Parmesan cheese
3 cloves garlic, minced or 3 cubes Gefen Frozen Garlic
1 tablespoon Tuscanini Balsamic Vinegar
1 tablespoon Tuscanini Olive Oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon Tuscanini Olive Oil
1/2 cup diced mango
1/2 cup diced avocado
1/2 cup sliced strawberries
1/4 cup finely diced red onion
1 teaspoon minced jalapeño
juice of 2 limes
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with Gefen Parchment Paper.
Cut challah into 3/4-inch slices and arrange on the baking sheet.
Drizzle with oil and bake for 10 minutes, until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
In a bowl, mix together ingredients for classic tomato bruschetta or tropical bruschetta. Refrigerate 30–60 minutes.
