The slight bitterness of arugula and a crunchy baguette with quality olive oil create the perfect balance of flavors and textures. The appetizer has everything you need to fall in love for a long time. To add freshness to the ricotta, you can try adding the zest of 1 lemon to it and leaving it in the refrigerator for several hours. Serve bruschetta between meals to refresh your mouth.
