EditTips

  • If desired, you can toast the bread up to a day before serving. If this is the case, cool the bread, then place in an airtight container at room temperature.
  • Use a serrated or sharp bread knife to cut the baguette. It's most effective to use a back and forth movement instead of simply pressing down.
  • Substitute 1 cup chopped tomato instead of the roasted red bell peppers if desired
  • Consider adding 2 tablespoons drained capers
