Lively and complex aromas call up home cooking: meats, green whiffs of olive and the smell of superb, sautéed bread. In the mouth they're even more expressive: delicate, spiced nuances of nutmeg and black pepper, the bitter touch of olive, fennel (from the brine), nice, aged cheese. Rich, long, mature sensations all nicely contrasting amidst the pulpy filling and breading.
