She makes caponata for her guests with the Agerola cookies, or the pieces of double-baked whole-wheat bread, baked right in Agerola, home of this bread precisely and just a few kilometers from Hostaria di Bacco.
Ingredients
Durum wheat biscuit bread;
Tomatoes;
Garlic;
Oregano;
Basil;
Vegetables in oil (eggplant, zucchini, tomatoes, olives);
Salted anchovies;
Olive oil;
Salt.
Preparation
Break up the bread between your hands, wet it with what light spray of water so that it softens and place it in a bowl.
Add all the ingredients, season with oil and salt, and mix everything together. A trick, for those who like it, used by Peppe Guida is to sponge the cookies in tomato water.
