Tortano

Tortano is a traditional Easter bread filled with cold cuts, lard and pecorino cheese. It is similar to Casatiello but differs in that the hard-boiled eggs are actually incorporated into the stuffing rather than simply baked into the bread for decoration. And it also has  a twisted, "tortuous" shape, hence its name.
