Ingredients
Pancotto con rucola e patate
Preparation
1
This soup from Apulia the spiked heel of Italy is made with potato cheese and bread approx minimalist poor mans fare. Whenever I make it Im tempted to substitute stock for water thinking that the few ingredients might benefit from a little help but it really doesnt need it. I need hardly add that the above is true only if the other ingredients are of high quality especially the bread and olive oil. Use a loaf of sturdy peasant type bread not so difficult to find these days. The olive oil should be extra virgin packed with character.
