But how romantic is  to say “Brioche au beurre” instead of “butter brioche”? In my opinion a lot , and since where there is butter I see romance, then i want to use French, although, I must be honest ,I have never studied and learned it (has the time come once and for all to the sound of croissants and croissants? I would say yes!). Well, after this prelude, I would like to emphasize that in this mixture we will not have any water roux (luckily, you s...

Yes, I know very well that it is spelled ALL SEMOLINA, but I really like that these two words are so close that they touch each other and become a single name: the one I have been looking for over the past few months. Semolina bread has always been my obsession. The reason is that I’m from Puglia and therefore I could not fail in this mission ( semolina bred is one of the tipical bread of this place of Italy). This type of bread to literally drive me crazy and bring bac...

The speeches on bread are the ones I like most. Perhaps because they describe me, because they are the means to say what I am not saying out of fear of offending and hurting, perhaps out of fear of misunderstanding, or who knows what other reason. The speeches on bread allow me to give voice to a philosophy of life that nestles between a leavening and another, between waiting and satisfaction, between disappointment and wanting to start over. Many, in this period, have redisc...

Ok, I have to admit, the chocolate and puff pastry association is one of my many obsessions related to bread. This, essentially, is a technique, as I had already mentioned for the Hokkaido bread, well known in Japan and, some time ago, wandering on the web (damn web hahahha) I glimpsed something celestial: a sheet of chocolate rolled in a soft dough rich in butter. I let you imagine what effect those veins of chocolate aroused between the furrows of a soft and fragrant bread ...

This bread was born from a call with my friend, Vanessa. During calls with friends, there are those who talk about fashion, art and more: I SPEAK OF BREAD. In other words, it makes a little laugh perhaps, but cooking in general is always one of my favorite topics when it comes to friendship and in a certain sense, with the friends I love most, I don’t know how, but I find it easy to talk of food and my passions, just because I know they can understand me. Having said th...

This dove was an epic feat. We started with the other doves by mistaking the baking tray: too big for the amount of dough I had prepared. We remedy the baking paper. We started with this dough and our oven leaves us. Panic. It really seemed that these doves weren’t to be done, but we didn’t give up. We dismantled the oven during the leavening hours of the dove, praying and sweating cold. We called my cousin, my aunt, the neighbors, and we all warned that if our ov...
