One of my favorite things to eat
at Bartolotta’s Pizzeria Piccola is bread knots. They are bits of baked dough covered in olive
oil, garlic, and oregano and then topped with parmesan cheese. Bread knots are an absolutely delicious
appetizer that comes with a sauce if you feel like dipping. I never do because I love the bread knots just
as they are.
For
a long time I have seen the option to have the bread knots made
gluten-free. It was something that
always intrigued me but for some reason never tried. Now I have and I think they are just as good
as the regular. In some ways I think
they’re better. While the taste is
pretty much the same, I find
the gluten-free bread knots to be lighter.
They are filling but not to the point where I feel stuffed. As much as I love the regular bread knots I
will admit that after eating only one I can tell I may not have much room left
for my entrée. They could easily be a
meal all on their own.
Even though I like the gluten-free bread knots, I will most likely stick with the regular. There is a slight price difference between the two, and I do mean slight, and as I usually share my bread knots there is not much of a risk of getting too full too fast. However, if I happen to be dining with someone who is gluten-free and they want to share a plate of bread knots, I’m certainly not going to pass the opportunity up. pizzeriapiccola.com
