    For all the criticism Rachel gets, hers was the only true Panzanella recipe among the main shows/chefs, calling for the soaking of stale bread in water. It was exactly what I was looking for because I always have stale leftover La Brea Bakery bread to use up. I did add more dressing as well as dijon and a wee bit of minced garlic to my dressing for more oomph. Thanks!!!
