Although hard and not pleasant to eat by itself, old bread was never just thrown away, but actually carefully preserved to be used in different preparations. In the small towns around Foggia, an Apulian city, old bread has been traditionally used to prepare the recipe, Pancotto, i.e. old bread brought to new life by boiling it with a bit of rocket salad. Serves: 4 | Preparation time: 5 mins | Cooking time: 10 mins
Rinse the rocket salad under cold running water and cut the bread in bite-sized chunks. Boil both the bread and the rocket in a pot of salted water for about 5-6 minutes; drain them and gently squeeze the bread to get rid of some of the water. Place the bread and the rocket salad in a serving bowl. Heat up the oil in a pan and brown the garlic and the chili peppers. Pour the aromatic oil directly from the pan over the bread and rocket salad. Stir well to evenly combine all the ingredients. Serve warm. |
