Notes
Note 1 - we used Pugliese bread, but a baguette or good quality sourdough would also work.
Note 2 - I also think goat cheese would work really well with this recipe, although I haven't tried it. Goats cheese was my original thought for this recipe.
Note 3 - balsamic glaze can be found in most supermarkets in the vinegar section. It is balsamic vinegar mixed with sugar to make a slightly sweet thick glaze. It is absolutely delicious!
