Tips:

  • Use a good quality bread. A sturdy bread like French bread or sourdough will hold up better in the casserole than a softer bread like white bread.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the strata tough.
  • Use fresh ingredients. Fresh ingredients will give the strata the best flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. You can add other ingredients to the strata, such as cooked vegetables, herbs, or spices.
  • Make sure to let the strata rest before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.
