I don’t find out about you…. however I’m curious.
I see ‘caco’ and my thoughts instantly goes to chocolate, regardless that I do know it’s not (cacao, not caco).
Elizabeth, of weblog from OUR kitchen, and our host kitchen for this month, explains the time period: this flatbread was cooked on a basalt stone over sizzling coals, which was referred to as caco, therefore its title.
It’s also referred to as Madeiran Tile Bread.
This bread (or these flatbreads) are a specialty of the Portuguese island of Madeira. Initially, they had been cooked on the stones as a result of common individuals couldn’t have ovens and needed to pay to make use of the ovens within the monasteries or castles.
They’re now a preferred road meals in addition to a staple with each meal.
They’ve candy potato within the dough, white if obtainable, as a result of there was not loads of grain obtainable on the island. Or, possibly, as a result of it made a pleasant, moist bread.
