Mrs Elbeno brought back a new bread variant from the local supermarket today. Filone Italiano.
Crust: “hearty”. Well, it wasn’t bad. Although it was not particularly crusty. A victim of marketing hype. But still very edible.
Interior: “full-bodied” and “tangy”. Whatever that means. It was very soft. Very soft. Yet nice.
The intermediate stage of assembly.
The finished article. It goes well with ham and cheddar. I would fear for its structural stability when mixed with pickle, however.
