bruschetta
Grilled garlic bread
Bruschetta is an Italian appetizer of grilled bread rubbed with garlic and drizzled with olive oil, typically topped with diced tomatoes, basil, and seasonings.
The bread is toasted until crisp, then loaded with fresh toppings: We ordered bruschetta to start.
The word is Italian, properly pronounced with a hard K sound, though the soft CH pronunciation is common in English.
