When the cold seasons arrive, the desire to pamper oneself with a dish that manages to warm the body and spirit grows.
In this, Sicilian cuisine really has a lot to offer, as it draws on a truly extraordinary poor and peasant tradition.
Pane Cotto Siciliano is a delicious Sicilian-style cooked bread soup.
It is also a way to recycle stale bread.
Of course, for the end result to be perfect, it is best that you choose a bread made of wheat flour.
We also added good grated pecorino cheese to the recipe.
If you like, you can complete with flavorings of your liking and even a little chili pepper.
You will feel the goodness.
INGREDIENTS:
- .2 cups of stale bread
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 bay leaf
- 1/4 cup of Pecorino cheese
- 1 cup of tomato sauce
- 2 cups of water
- extra virgin olive oil to taste
- pepper and salt to taste
DIRECTIONS:
To make Pane Cotto Siciliano, you must first cut the bread into pieces.
Set it aside.
Clean the garlic, then brown it in a pan with the oil.
Be sure to use a large enough pan.
Pour in the tomato sauce.
Cook for a few minutes.
Add the water and bay leaf.
Adjust the salt and pepper, then add the bread pieces.
Bring to a boil and cook for as long as it takes for the starch in the bread to take on a gelatinous consistency.
All the bread should be well soaked.
Stir with a spoon.
Plate by adding grated pecorino cheese.
If you like, add chili and another round of raw oil.
