At the table
For Visit Tuscany’s baked sausage-and-stracchino crostini, spread the mixture over slices of pane casereccio. Choose a country loaf by its texture and flour rather than a protected designation.
Choose bread that lets you spread the topping evenly, and use the same cut for the whole tray.
