What is this that Beppe's talking about? Something simple, right?
So I look on Google and what do I see?
OK. Lets narrow it down. Lets check Wiki.
How about focaccia recipes? Only "About 333,000 results".
What have I learned about Beppe's bread? Only that it is flattish and probably made 30.000 different ways.
Can you all fight over the best way to make it? I'll take the recipe from the last person standing.

If you have time post your request in the italian place (sticky in the lounge). Post in English of course or in ancient Roman. as you see fit. Thank you
by the way in Eneides Virgilio recounts that they were so hungry that after the meal they ate their plate (mensa). That 's the first pizza ever mentioned. My friend R.R. from Baytown, TX, knows the truth: Pizza Pie was brought to Italy by GI in 2nd World War. I hope that KK reads this, she would love it.
When we were kids and Gegè (Eugenio) had this very fast AlfaRomeo Giulietta, some time we stopped studying and made a short trip to Recco to buy the focaccia (120 km one way trip,he made it in less than an hour, the fool. My father in law claims that he made the same trip, a classic among Milanese kids of that time, in less than 45 minutes, he had a Maserati). An other time. Long gone.
