Talk:Piadini

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

this food is called "Piadina", with "Piadine" being the plural form. "Piadini", is more likely the way an english/american speaker would pronounce the plural form. I doubt "Piadini" exists as a word although i have no italian dictionary at hand; should it exist, it certainly does not refer to the bread-like food. A similar word exists: "Piedini" which has multiple meanings, some of which might relate to non-bread-related foodstuff e.g. "Piedini Di Porco" a.k.a "Pied{i|e} Di Porco"/"Zampone" bust mostly it does not.

more importantly, Piadina has nothing whatsoever in common with crackers aside possibly from being made from flour. it is a large, round, soft with a slightly firmer but very thin crust bread when freshly baked or semi-fresh and reheated (the way it's intended to be consumed), when preserved or cold it is firm, somewhat chewy but soft, in both cases it is soft and flexible enough to be used as a wrap (it can be and indeed is often rolled up and filled). to give you an idea, freshly baked Piadine are carefully held with both hands as they would otherwise fold and spill their filling.

a brittle, cracker-like one, or one that breaks when bent has likely either passed its expiry date or been exposed to air and should really not be eaten, even though like most breads it would probably be safe to do so your taste buds would not enjoy the experience.

[edit] not-crispy & spelling

I fixed this article up & changed the spelling in the article but didn't change the spelling of the article title. Jennifer Brooks (talk) 19:12, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] other article exists

should be deleted, Piadina (correctly spelled) already exists. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.116.77.246 (talk) 19:42, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
