Bob,
This bread is from my home town in Sicily.  It's made with a very dry oil dough. Try it with Nutella.

Bob,

Thanks for posting all the pictures of what you purchased.  The Oregnato ring looks very interesting.  The Pepperoni and cheese boli also looks very good.

Matt,
Is there any special name for it and do you have any formulas?  The more I eat it the more I like it.  I think I would really like it with roasted peppers.

Thanks,

Bob

Yes, it's called vottadu in our dialect.  It is phenomenal with peppers.  My mother used to make me pepper sandwiches with it for lunch when I was in school.  It is also fantastic with fettini di vitello,
This recipe is really good http://vivalafocaccia.com/2010/01/08/la-video-ricetta-del-pane-di-pasta-dura/
