Feel free to experiment with different herbs like oregano or thyme to customize the flavor profile. For a vegetarian option, ensure that the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese is made with vegetarian rennet. If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular pie dish, but make sure to grease it well. For an extra crispy crust, you can toast the panko breadcrumbs in the oven before adding them to the pan.
