Bruschetta à la romaine

Bruschetta alla romana is a traditional bruschetta variety originating from Rome. Although there are variations, it's made with a combination of bread, cherry tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, capers, salt, and pepper in its classic form. The capers are rinsed in water and coarsely chopped. The tomatoes are chopped, mixed with the capers, olive oil, salt, and pepper, and the mixture is then spooned over toasted slices of bread that have been rubbed with garlic. If desired, feel free to add black olives, oregano, and basil to the bruschetta mixture for extra flavors and textures.
