    I just visited Italy and yes this is a fantastic bread but I was able to try other great breads in other regions as well. There were some great breads in Sicily that I liked equally.

    Do you need to ask to a french beker to get the approval of the altamura bread?

    fun fact: italy imports a lot of durum wheat from Canada and US for making bread because the west amber strain is superior to their durum strain

    lukkyluciano Yes durum is mainly used for industrial pasta. You can't produce the enormous quantities of pasta made in Italy and consumed worldwide only using durum grown in Italy. This is why Italy imports 30% of its Durum needs usually from Canada and Ukraine, from industrial farmers who cultivate durum in ginormous quantities to satisfy World consuming requests. This is also the reason why minor industrial pasta makers that use only Italian durum notoriously superior to any other American durum are way more expensive than giant pasta makers products like Barilla. Bread in Italy is made usually with normal wheat flour, not with durum. Bread in Altamura receive D.O.P. denomination because they use only durum wheat semolina and only from Apulia. 😀😎

    I heard that too. But I've been reading and a lot of bakeries use a tiny amount of baker's years nowadays. It makes their life easier, it's a bit more forgiving than using just sourdough.

    Adding a little yeast yields to a much lighter crumb - fluffy bread.

    Not neccesarily. It HIGHLY depends on the quality of the starter. If the starter is not the most active one, yeast will make better results. If your starter is very very active, it may only change the time the bread will need.
