bruschettas
Italian appetizer bread
Bruschettas is the plural of bruschetta, an Italian appetizer of grilled bread rubbed with garlic and drizzled with olive oil, typically topped with diced tomatoes, basil, or other ingredients.
The word is often mispronounced with a "sh" sound, but the Italian is broo-SKET-ah: We ordered several bruschettas to share.
