Miccone is a characteristic bread local to the Oltrepò Pavese area (Stradella and Broni contest the 'true' miccone crown) with a crunchy crust and compact, soft crumb. It can be kept for several days. The secret is the flour - which must be top quality - and lengthy working which ensures correct leavening and ideal baking. It is naturally the perfect accompaniment to many local Pavia province products. Production zone: Oltrepò Pavese bread
