Sorry, never heard of that type of bread.
I think it was "pisa" bread......not pita like the Lebanese or Syrian bread as this bread has more "bread inside it".......not as flat as pita.
But it was circular. I think nowadays they call it artisan bread.
My husband thinks it might have been made from the same dough they made pizza from; I don't think so. He calls it pizza bread.
My dad called it pisa bread.....or something like that. Don't know if they put lard in it. Italians didn't cook with lard that I knew of.
Now, my Polish mother in law did cook with lard and bacon grease.
