Tuscan schiacciata alla fiorentina (semi-sweet soft cake) – mediaeval version
Cakes
ABSOLUTELY TUSCAN!!! or better, ABSOLUTELY MEDICI FAMILY's FLORENTINE STYLE!!! Certainly not a “sweet” as we used to mean it us modern people, but a magnificent “rich bread” … or rather a “greasy schiacciata” by the really medieval spicy and intense taste, that makes you think you could find it in the baskets of a bread stall in the streets of Florence, where Dante Alighieri was walking … <br /> <br />Of course we can pair a dry Vin Santo (the famous tuscan dessert wine), but better, for those rough goers in Florentine taverns of the 300th, a simple and fresh Trebbiano (it is documented that they drink it more than water !!!) … or a Vernaccia di San Gimignano.
