"What exactly is Italian Lasagna Bread? It’s actually really cool! Pasta is traditionally made out of durum semolina flour. Semolina is made from a type of wheat called ‘durum wheat,’ and it’s a bit courser than traditional flour. In fact, it often has a bit of a golden color, so it looks like a cross between cornmeal and regular wheat flour. Semolina is most commonly used to make pasta as the high gluten count in semolina helps pasta hold its shape once cooked. This Italian Lasagna Bread is a fun crossover between bread and pasta! Crispy like flatbread on the outside, chewy like pasta on the inside...and 100% delicious!To make this Italian Lasagna Bread (called Scaccia in Italian), you simply make a dough out of semolina flour. That dough rests for a bit and then gets rolled out into a huge rectangle. Add fillings, fold it up, add some more fillings, fold it up some more and then tuck the whole thing in a bread pan. Here comes the fun part though: the top layer gets crispy while baking but the middle layers stay soft…and you would swear the middle layers are pasta. In a way, they kinda are pasta. After all, that semolina dough is the base for making pasta. Talk about a fun recipe!"
