Enjoy serving this rustic Italian appetizer while the rest of your dinner is cooking on the grill. Prepare the relish a few hours ahead and when the coals are at their hottest, put the bread on the grill. Assemble just before serving. This is one of those dishes that can be addictive, so don’t serve too many or your friends won’t have room for dinner!
