To do that, you will brush a bit of olive oil on every slice of bread, place oil facet down on a baking sheet and toast within the oven for about 8 to 10 minutes. As soon as toasted, instantly take away from oven and rub every bread slice with a recent clove of garlic slice in half. This provides SO a lot garlicky taste! Then merely assemble the bruschetta by spooning the tomato combination onto every slice of garlic bread and drizzle with a balsamic glaze.
