Tips:
- Use day-old bread for a sturdier strata. Fresh bread will become too soggy.
- Cut the bread cubes into small, even pieces so that they cook evenly.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the corned beef and cheese into thin slices. This will help them to distribute evenly throughout the strata.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the strata tough.
- Bake the strata in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. This will help to prevent the strata from sticking to the pan.
- Serve the strata warm or at room temperature. It's also delicious the next day.
