Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different type of bread?

Absolutely! While sourdough provides a lovely tangy flavor and sturdy base, you can use any bread you like. Ciabatta, whole wheat, or even brioche would work well. Just make sure it’s sturdy enough to hold the toppings.

Can I make this ahead of time?

While this toast is best enjoyed fresh, you can prep some of the ingredients ahead of time. Toast the bread, quarter the tomatoes, and measure out the arugula. Just wait to cook the eggs and assemble the toast until you’re ready to serve.
