Puglia, with cities like Altamura, boasts good, authentic, and strong bread, synonymous with an ancient tradition.
But a typical Apulian oven has much more to offer.
Friselle
Friselle are bread wafers that can also be made with whole wheat dough. They're excellent for making crispy bruschetta.
Taralli of all kinds
Among the typical baked goods of Puglia, taralli are certainly a must, from plain ones to those with fennel seeds, from wholemeal ones to those with cereals and so on.
Apulian taralli, especially the small ones, are also a perfect snack to enjoy when you're a little hungry.
