03 Know before you cook
Small details, better dinner.
Practical notes for getting the texture right, adapting the ingredients, and saving what is left.
- Use raspberries or seedless grapes for a different fruit pattern.
- Mascarpone can replace the yogurt for a richer filling.
Wrap tightly and refrigerate for up to 24 hours; the bread softens as it sits.
