Sheets of pane carasau dipped in hot broth until they soften, layered with tomato sauce and grated pecorino, and topped with a poached egg. A shepherd's assembly that Cagliari treats as comfort food.
Pane carasau is the flatbread of the Sardinian interior, baked twice so it keeps for months, which is why shepherds carried it and why every island table has it. Pane frattau is what you do with it when you are home: soften the sheets in hot broth, layer them with tomato sauce and grated aged pecorino, stack three or four deep, and finish with a poached egg so the yolk runs into the layers. The name comes from the Sardinian for crumbled or broken up. It is a dish of the Barbagia and the Nuoro region that has moved into city kitchens, and in Cagliari it has its own dedicated restaurant on Via Azuni.
