Dear PJ,
Thank you so much for posting this recipe, I am going to make the starter tonight and the bread tomorrow to have with lasagna. I have to share my story with you and tell you why I am so thankful to find this recipe and your story. I grew up in MA and my Dad worked for Green Freedman bakery in Boston. When I was young we would have all the bulkie rolls and Jewish rye we wanted and my Dad and G & F obliged. Once in a while Dad would surprise us with a loaf of scali from Quinzani's bakery. It was absolutely wonderful! I now live in NC and have hoped to find a recipe for scali for a long time. Can't wait to try this and Thank you again. Susan Smedile-Berry
You're welcome, Susan. Glad I could help you relive some nice memories... PJH
