Ingredients
Ingredients
For the Panettone Base
- 1 Flamigni Savory Panettone
- Planeta Extra Virgin Olive Oil, for brushing
For the Tomato & Black Garlic Topping
- 2 cups ripe cherry tomatoes or heirloom mini tomatoes, quartered
- 3–4 Nero Fermento Black Garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 tbsp Nero Fermento Black Garlic Paste
- 1 tbsp Planeta Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Prepare the Flamigni Savory Panettone Base
- Slice the Flamigni savory panettone into ½-inch thick slices or squares, depending on your preferred presentation.
- Lightly brush each slice with Planeta Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
- Toast or grill until golden and lightly crisp on the outside while remaining tender within (2–3 minutes per side).
- Sprinkle with a touch of flaky sea salt if desired.
Step 2
Prepare the Tomato & Black Garlic Topping
- In a mixing bowl, combine the tomatoes and parsley.
- Add the finely chopped Nero Fermento black garlic and the black garlic paste; its natural sweetness and umami depth will blend beautifully with the tomatoes.
- Add the Planeta Extra Virgin Olive Oil, along with salt, pepper, and optional red pepper flakes.
- Toss gently so the tomatoes remain intact.
- Allow to marinate for 10–15 minutes so the flavors harmonize.
Step 3
Assemble the Bruschetta
- Spoon the tomato–black garlic mixture generously over the toasted panettone slices.
- Finish with your choice of refined garnishes:
- A sprinkle of parsley
Serve immediately while the contrast between the warm, savory Flamigni panettone and the cool, aromatic tomato topping is at its peak.
