[Sca-cooks] Panforte

[Terry Decker]

I didn't have any candied gourd, so I replaced it with fruitcake mix. 
Orange peel was on hand.

I'll do this recipe again when I have some candied gourd or squash to play 
with.  I'll be doing some candied ginger sometime in the next few weeks and 
I'll probably play with candied cucurbit at the same time.

The traditional shape is a boule, although this will do equally as well well 
as a batard or a braid.
