Bruschetta With Oven-Roasted Tomatoes And Fontina Cheese
- 12 to 14 plum tomatoes, cut in half lengthwise
- 1 teaspoon crumbled dried marjoram
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (plus additional for brushing the bread)
- 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, or to taste
- 24 3/4-inch-thick slices French bread, cut on the diagonal
- 24 thin slices fontina cheese (about 6 ounces cheese)
- 1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Place a rack over a sheet tray. Scoop out the seeds of the tomatoes and place each half on a rack, cut side down. Roast until the tomatoes have shriveled and dried partially, about 1 1/2 hours. Keep the oven on. Toss the roasted tomatoes with the marjoram, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper.
- 3. Brush the bread slices with olive oil and toast or grill on both sides.
- 4. Place the fontina on the grilled bread and top with 2 to 3 tomato halves (one layer). Place on a baking sheet and heat through in the oven until the cheese has melted. Serve hot.
