Friselle (or frise) di Altamura are another masterpiece of Apulian baking. The Double-Baking Secret: Friselle are essentially a twice-baked, dry bread. The dough (semolina, water, sourdough starter or yeast, and salt) is shaped into a ring, baked once, taken out of the oven while still hot, split in half with a string, and then put back into the oven to toast until completely dehydrated. This process creates two sides: one smooth bottom, and one rough, porous top (where the toppings go).
Why were they invented? They were the ultimate food for shepherds, sailors, and crusaders. Because they contain zero moisture, they could be stored for months without spoiling.
