Recipe: Caprese focaccia with arugula

Sandwiches and bruschetta with herbs
November 05, 2009


RocketWhen I planned this focaccia stuffed with a sort of Caprese salad, I tought to use thai basil. But when I went to the balcony I found out that the last thai basil leaves are too tiny and doesn't look good.
So I harvested some fresh arugula and a tiny, tender celery stalk, and I must say that maybe this solution was better then the original idea.
