Walk out our apartment door, walk down 60 steps, go out the front door of our building, turn right, walk past the bar, the pizzeria, the bookstore, the cute corner gelato shop, cross via Mastro Giorgio, and enter Panificio Passi. Five days in Testaccio, about two visits each day, makes about 10 shopping visits so far to this heavenly bakery.
Pizza, cookies, crostata and bread and more. Famous in Rome for pizza bianca, there is always a line up.
Today is Friday. Rome’s weekly menu calendar suggests pasta e cecci or baccalà. Passi had containers of soaking chick peas at the ready this morning but we were on our way out to the Centro storico this morning, so no time to cook dinner.
Instead we picked up Passi’s famous Pomodori con Riso (tomato stuffed with rice, on a bed of diced potatoes) baked in their hot bread ovens. Looks yummy? It is! Salty, sweet and creamy potatoes. Here is a recipe for Roman-style stuffed tomatoes with rice.
