I wanted to create a sun of bread, then filled it with chicory  ; simple dishes are  , in my opinion , the best  .. good bread and chicory fall into this category and I like as usual, tell you just a  little about me … the sandwich in q my dad made me know this sandwich ..my father a good man, generous but mostly lovable as anyone ever, my respect for him over my immense affection are identical even after twenty years since has flown by and even today I miss his smile , his eyes alive , his joy and desire to live … well I digress and  Ido not want to bore you … Papa’ loved nature and often with a group of friends started at dawn to go for long walks in the woods around Rome … well, one day , he told that while they were in the car at about  at 6 o’clock in the morning one of his friends offered him a sandwich with chicory … he refused … but seeing how  the guy ate the bread softened by the oil chicory … said that … despite the hour cappuccino and a croissant , he accepted and it was the apotheosis of taste … this episode when he told his listeners , savored with him and seemed to eat with your imagination as the eighth wonder of the kitchen … actually , try putting the chicory with garlic, olive oil and chilli (if you like ) in the bread , let the bread soak and then … enjoy!

And now … LIGHT THE  FIRES !
