Credit: Sarah DiGregorioWhen looking over the Village Voice’s food blog, I spotted this photo, which illustrated Sarah DiGregorio’s review of a new bakery in Brooklyn. The name alone stopped me in my tracks:Lard bread.Have ever two words sounded so sweet together? (No, bacon chocolate does not count. Bacon chocolate is disgusting.) Turns out, lard bread is a New York Italian specialty that descended from a Neapolitan bread called casatiello, enriched with lard and studded with salami and cheese. The Brooklyn Bread Cafe’s version comes speckled with browned prosciutto, and it’s apparently not the best example of the genre.I called Columbia City Bakery, Bakery Nouveau, Macrina, and Essential, and no one had even heard of lard bread, though several of the counter people I spoke to responded to my question with the same, quasi-breathless wonder in their voices as I did when I first heard the phrase.Seattle bakers, get on it.
