Pane Toscano

Pane sciocco , also called pane toscano ('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. In Italian, particularly in Tuscany, sciocco 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.
