This looks intriguing...is it a semolina bread - that is, made from
durham wheat?

I would love the recipe.

Me, too. Me too. I'm hoping it is semolina. I love semolina in bread.
Noticing your brick on the oven - They are much thicker than what I imagine
that U.S. home bread makers are using from their local tile/hardware store.
Any comments on these stones, vs. the ones you are using?

It seems if you post anything looking this great, that you have to be
prepared to have the recipe in-hand.
This Torta looks sooo much different before cut. I would never have
imagined it looked this way inside.

Yes! It is made with "Farina di semola di grano duro" (Hard wheat semola
flour). Now I don't know how do you say.

You are so very charming and kind to share all these delights.

Desidero ringraziarla per tutto l'aiuto.

(That is borrowed from an old dictionary & I am sure is ungrammatical
and barely understandable)

BRAVOOOOOOOO!!!!! Grazie per avermi parlato in Italiano. Lo apprezzo molto
!!!!!
But you have not to thank me! I Am very happy to share recipes with you!
Because you are too nice!!! And I love your recipes too!
The only thing I Am sorry is that we are so far from each other ((

Nooo! It is grammatically perfect, indeed!! The only thing is that the
phrase you have written is in 3rd persons. I would have said." Desidero
ringraziarTI per tutto l'aiuto.
In English there is no difference between 1st person and 3rd persons.
Instead in Italian you say *you* (2nd person singular) to a friend and *lei*
to a person you don't know well.

Thank you Boron!!! I'm pleased to have met you and all this NG !!! ))

We are so lucky to have you in this newsgroup -- to see regional
dishes from Italy -- not usually found in my Italian cookbooks
(Marcella Hazan).

This dessert looks beautiful, a winter season dessert perhaps, but I
shall definitely file this one away should you post the recipe!

Cheers

I think I noticed the oven cleanliness before the bricks. I'm always hoping
that my oven doesn't show up in the pictures I take. Mine is self-cleaning,
too, but it's a job that gets undone -- you know, turn the knob, pull the
latch - that's a job I can put off.

Yeah, Michael, I'd be apt to do the same thing, it looks just too darned
delicious!

Indeed! Inn the old days, I'd have been in Europe so often that I
could easily have dropped in. I do not travel far any more. I miss it,
but am thankful for all the traveling when I was younger.

I tried to ask my son, who has 1 year of school Italian under his
belt, but he could not help me. I guess listening to opera recordings
and looking through dictionaries is the best I can do now!

But It is my first experiment. I know that you are more clever then me with
bread )
This recipe is a speedy recipe. I should have made natural yeast for it. But
I wanted to try first this, because I have no experience with natural yeasts
and breads

No! I must clean my oven by end and I don't clean it everyday because I cook
a lot )) I don't worry to show it because is a tool of working ))
