The answers re Bocconcini and Bruschetta



     Do you know that cooking and food are absolutely the main topic of conversation in Italy.  And yes, my questions re Bocconcini  and Bruschetta were considered carefully and responded to, with thought and understanding.  So thanks Bella, from http://www.timeintuscany.com/  for taking the time to do so.  As mentioned in previous blogs, we are fortunate
to have spent time with Bella and Bello, terms of endearment,  roughly translated into 'lovely woman and lovely man,'  have 
enjoyed their wonderful hospitality and 'talking about and savouring fabulous food!'

Qu 1 - Bruschette, Bruschetti, Bruschetta?
Bella's answer - Bruschette [not bruschetti] is plural for bruschetta. 

Qu 2 - What is bocconcini - is it the same as mozzarella?
Bella's answer - Bocconcini is mozzarella in bite size pieces. Bocconcini means small mouth.
Hope this helps!

One more question please. Is crostini, singular or plural and is it essentially a small bruschetta?
