Bruschetta

This simple but elegant appetizer (or hors d'oeuvre) is made with only a few ingredients. A very thin layer of anchovy sauce adds a pleasant umami without an offensive fishy flavor. Use more if you really like the flavor of anchovies. I used some recently baked bread (the Italian Sausage Bread) but a baguette would work equally well. According to my food encyclopedia, garlic bread is traditional.
The anchovy sauce can also be drizzled over cooked pasta or as a dipping sauce for pieces of bread, in which case you would add more oil, up to 1 cup (240ml).

People THINK they don’t like anchovies. Many who say that have never had them in a meal/hors d’oeuvre prep in fact have had them. They add such wonderful glutamates to pretty much anything. It’s not that you can detect anchovies, but that you can detect their absence. If you tell me you’ve added a few anchovies you’ve got me all excited. Such an underused food item. Collioure, Spain’s anchovy festival is a tribute to this God’s gift to mankind.

Anchovie paste or anchovies are something you do not miss until their gone out of a recipe. They do bring something. These look delicious. Will be trying for sure. Great video Dennis!

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

So true! I l learned about anchovies from a little Italian lady from Port Chester, New York. She was an amazing cook. -Dennis

[@jackwebb437]

Exactly 100% truth.

Absolutely love bruschetta and anchovies so I think this is gonna be a winner ! Gonna look for some nice tomatoes from the market and make this soon .

[@justice-jb5ld]

That’s an interesting recipe, I don’t really anchovies but I’m tempted to try this one, good to see you.

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

The strong flavor of anchovies can easily overpower almost any dish, but used sparingly it adds a little extra flavor that can be very good. I mostly add one or two fillets to a pot of marinara or when I make pasta e fagioli. A little Red Boat brand fish sauce is a good alternative in soups and sauces. -Dennis

I just discovered this channel and I LOVE the style. It reminds me of the cooking shows my mother used to watch when I was a little kid. Great recipes as well!

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

Welcome! Thank you for the pleasant comment. Enjoy the channel. -Dennis

[@Phyllyps-Levine]

Sliding down the wall laughing! I love anchovies but I never meet anyone who does. I’m in!

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

I can appreciate that. A little goes a long way, but they add an extra kick to some dishes. -Dennis

[@nancymandle5215]

just finished reading your sunday blog. I LOVE how your camper patch turned out - good for you!!!!! And congratulations on finding your watch and thus assuring your brain that all is well with it. I know that worried feeling well as i’m just a year younger than you. I so enjoy your blogs!!!!

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

Thanks Nancy. I felt really stricken for a while about that expensive watch because the one place I didn't look was the recycling box and it was already picked up. I feel really good about the little camper patch. It should look good on the aprons I use in my cooking videos. -Dennis And for those who wonder about the blog Nancy is referring to, it's here: www.white-trash-cooking.com/blog.html It's like a journal in which I write about the stuff going on in my life, good or bad, and it keeps my writing skills polished.

Looks great! I'm surprised you didn't add basil. I think it'd add a nice touch if you like it.

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

I 100% agree. Fresh basil would have been a good addition. I regret not having any. Thanks for the comment. -Dennis

[@csmarsh1957]

Oh no evil anchovies... the main flavoring ingredient in Worchestershire and many meals. Looks delicious. I can see enough in sun to type and autocucumber helps

[@heidiandbretz9867]

Lolol.....I love your humor. Can you use sardines instead? I'm new to these kinds of fishes. I have a few sardines on the shelf, because I've heard they are so good for you.

[@MobileHomeGourmet]

I keep sardines in the cupboard for the same reason. I like them on buttered toast. The flavor is milder than anchovies, but they might work well on the bruschetta. -Dennis

You and many others. I occasionally sneak them into my recipes in such a way that no one notices, but they know the food tastes good. -Dennis
