Pane di Casa
This is a bakery worth noting if you're in the area. These are all loaves of a kilo or more. This method is ultra sustainable. They heat the oven the first time to 350 degrees. 500, this one. Oh, 500. Then they remove the bread when it's baked, after about forty minutes. My mom used to heat it with kindling. It's not like pizza, where you've got the oven. Exactly, just on one side. You bring the oven up to 500 degrees. Then you remove everything, and slowly as it 'descends' in heat, the bread cooks. The advantage is that the temperature is even. There's no single point that burns. It's still warm. Well, if it's not warm here, where would it be? The crust nice and thick and crunchy. The soft part is warm. Nicely tangy. Perfect for 'scarpetta'. Perfect for slathering a mountain of butter on top.
