Instead of Sourdough bread
Nothing truly replaces sourdough's tang and chewy crust; white bread is only a structural stand-in.
Soft white breadUse the same weight; toast or dry it first to firm it up, but it will lack the sour tang and chewy crust.
White breadUse the same weight; it is softer and less sour, so reduce any liquid slightly if the bread is soaking in the dish.
BreadUse the same weight; choose the firmest loaf available and toast it for more structure.
