What a BEAUTIFUL food picture, Pandora! Thank you. It looks like a
wonderful warm day snack, for sure. Is the mosaic tile background in
your courtyard? It's beautiful too.

Question: Is pene carasau a crisp flatbread? It looks lighter and
more delicate than any cracker bread I've seen. I wonder if we can
substitute another type of "cracker" bread (Scandinavian, Armenian)?
