Flatbread Lasagna

  1. Break each sheet of pane carasau into three or four piecesjust small enough to fit in the individual serving dishes.
  2. Fill a large bowl with hot water, and drop in a batch of broken bread pieces.
  3. Let them soak for a few seconds, so all are moistened, then remove and spread them on the paper-towel-lined tray.
  4. The pieces should still be somewhat firm; dont let them get soggy.
  5. Moisten the rest of the pane carasau the same way.
  6. Heat the tomato sauce to a gentle simmer in a small saucepan, and keep it hot.
  7. Get ready for poaching the eggs: Pour water in the skillet to a depth of 2 inches, and add the vinegar (1 tablespoon per quart of water).
  8. Gradually heat to a simmer.
  9. Assemble the individual dishes of pane frattau just before cooking the eggs: Spread 3 to 4 tablespoons of sauce in the bottom of each dish or bowl, and sprinkle over each a tablespoon of grated cheese.
  10. Cover the sauce and cheese with a layer of moist pane carasau pieces (keep in mind that youll need three such layers in each dish, or twelve portions of bread).
  11. Spoon another 3 to 4 tablespoons sauce on top of the flatbread, and sprinkle over it another spoonful of cheese.
  12. Now repeat this layering twice morebread, sauce, cheese; bread, sauce, cheeseusing more or less of each to taste.
  13. Poach the eggs at the last minute: One at a time, break them into a small ramekin or cup, and gently slide each one into the simmering water.
  14. Cook the eggs 2 to 3 minutes for a firm white and still-runny yolk (or longer if you like).
  15. Lift each egg out with a slotted spoon, drain for a moment on paper towels, and lay it atop a dish of pane frattau.
  16. Give each egg a final dusting with cheese, and serve immediately.
