This classic Italian dish is the perfect way to use up old bread and turn it into something magical! With our best-selling Caramelized Garlic Infused Olive Oil and Dark Balsamic Vinegar of Modena soaking into the bread, every bite is packed with flavor. Add in fresh veggies and you’ve got yourself a tasty appetizer, side dish, or even a hearty main course!


Ingredients:

1 Baguette (day old is okay)

4 Tomatoes

1 Yellow Pepper

½ English Cucumber, seeds removed

½ Red Onion, thinly sliced

6 Basil Leaves, chiffonade cut

¼ cup Dark Balsamic Vinegar of Modena — available in 100ml · 250ml · 500ml · 750ml

¼ cup Caramelized Garlic Infused Olive Oil — available in 100ml · 250ml · 500ml · 750ml

1-2 tsp Roasted Garlic Sea Salt

½ tsp Black Pepper, fresh ground


Directions:

  1. Cut the bread, tomatoes, pepper, and cucumber into 1” bite-size pieces. Add the onion (thinly sliced) and basil (chiffonade cut). To cut basil chiffonade style, stack the leaves, roll them up like a tortilla, then slice along the roll. The basil will unroll into beautiful strands.

  2. Drizzle the bread and veggies with the Dark Balsamic Vinegar of Modena and toss to coat all ingredients evenly. Finish by drizzling with Caramelized Garlic Infused Olive Oil and season with Roasted Garlic Sea Salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. Let sit at least 30 minutes before enjoying. This will allow the oil and vinegar to soak into the bread, improving flavor and consistency.
