(; ), also called ('Tuscan bread') outside Tuscany, is a variety of bread commonly found in the Tuscany, Umbria, and Marche regions of Italy, different from other types of Italian bread for not having any salt added. <blockquote>Tu proverai sì come sa di sale / Lo pane altrui, [...]
Thou shalt have proof how savoureth of salt / The bread of others, [...]
</blockquote>
In Italian, particularly in Tuscany, means 'unsalted', but is more usually a word for 'foolish, stupid' elsewhere. According to legend, bakers created a saltless bread so they did not have to pay an increased salt tax.
is often eaten with Tuscan condiments such as cheese, ham, sausages, and prosciutto.
