1
Make crostini: Preheat oven to 375u00b0. Slice baguette into ten 1/4-in.-thick slices on the diagonal (save leftover bread for another use). Brush both sides of each slice lightly with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
2
Set slices on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until golden brown and crisp, rotating pan halfway through cooking, about 15 minutes total. Let cool.
3
Make topping: Combine peppers, onion, capers, and salt in a medium bowl. Add vinegar, brown sugar, and oil and toss to coat. Marinate at room temperature for 2 hours or chill overnight.
4
Stir in parsley just before serving or before packing your picnic basket. At the picnic site, spoon strained spoonfuls of the mixture onto crostini and top each with an anchovy.
