Ah hah. It is Pane Toscano. I looked at it in the supermarket yesterday -- it makes sense; I've been spelling it wrong all along. Ooops. At our local Coop, a very nice modern supermarket that I think is good, a majority of the bread is Pane Toscano in one form or another (filleto di Toscano, Pane della Nonna, cotta a legna, etc.), along with a Pugliese made from grano duro, and a very light Ciabatta. There are handful of wood oven breads, and the on-site bakery makes a nice schiacciata and schiacciata farcite that is sliced in half and stuffed with prosciutto, cheese, etc.

Nice to get the bottom of something.
