BUILD YOUR OWN BRUSCHETTA BAR

Steps:

• Brush the sides of each bread slice with olive oil, using a pastry brush.
• Place slices on an ungreased grill or grill pan and toast for about 2 minutes per side, over medium heat. Pay close attention so the bread doesn't burn.
• Remove toasts from grill, and immediately rub with cut side of a head of garlic and sprinkle with salt. The warmth of the bread releases the garlic's aroma.
• Combine tomatoes, garlic, basil and olive oil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Place the eggplant slices in a large bowl and cover with salted water. Place a plate on top of the eggplant, so it stays submerged for at least 15 minutes or up to overnight. Drain and dry the eggplant slices with a paper towel.
• Dice the eggplant into small cubes.
• Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet, over medium heat, and sauté the diced eggplant for about 10 minutes or until softened and starting to brown. Remove from heat and transfer to a medium bowl.
• Add the remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Transfer to a mason jar or other container with a tight-fitting lid and add more olive oil to cover eggplant, if needed. Marinate eggplant, covered and chilled, at least 4 hours. Bring to room temperature before serving.
• Heat olive oil In a large sauté pan, over medium heat, and sauté the garlic until fragrant and softened, about 2 minutes.
• Add grated zucchini and cook for about 5 minutes or until it dries out a bit. Remove from the heat and add salt, pepper, olives and thyme. Stir until combined. Transfer to a mason jar or other container with a tight-fitting lid. Refrigerate overnight.
• Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil.
• Refrigerate until needed. Drizzle with more olive oil when ready to serve.

Steps:

• For each topping, use a mini chopper or hand blender to pulse each set of ingredients for 1 min to make a rough paste, then season and scrape into two serving bowls. Arrange on a platter with the olives, tomatoes and rocket. Toast the bread slices and pile these alongside, plus some Parma ham if using. Bring to the table and let everyone dig in and assemble their own supper.

• Arrange bread on a baking sheet. Place in oven, and bake until well toasted, approximately 5 minutes.
