A dive into the Mediterranean, in this case Sicily, with all the typical flavours of our South.
Difficulty: very easy
Cost: low
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Makes: 1 bruschetta
To make the Pesto
- capers from Pantelleria or Salina 45%
- almonds (Pizzuta di Avola variety if available) 10 %
- fresh basil
- extra virgin olive oil
Rinse the capers well of their salt and place in a mixer with the peeled almonds and basil. Pulse drizzling in the extra virgin olive oil until a smooth but not fluid pesto is obtained.
To make the bruschetta
Cut a slice of bread about 1 cm thick, making sure it is neither too thin or too thick, spread with the pesto, place the slice of tomato on the top, making sure that the bruschetta is easy to bite.
Sprinkle with a little oregano and garnish with a basil leaf.
