PIADINA (ITALIAN FLATBREAD)
Piadina is an Italian flatbread from Emilia-Romagna region. The traditional recipe calls for lard in the dough which you can replace with a good extra-virgin olive oil. It is typically served stuffed with prosciutto and a local cheese called squacquerone but any soft cheese will work. Enjoy!

ITALIAN FLATBREAD (PIADINA) WITH FONTINA AND PROSCIUTTO
Giada says, "Piadini is a lot like a pizza, except that the crust doesn't rise and it's typically cooked on a grill to give it a nice, smoky flavor and crunchy crust. You can top a piadina with anything you like. This sauceless combination is very typical of northern Italy, where piadini are especially popular."

Steps:
- Combine the flour, baking soda, and 1 teaspoon of salt in the bowl of an upright mixer fitted with a dough hook attachment. Add the butter and mix on low speed until incorporated, about 2 minutes. With the machine running, slowly add 10 to 12 tablespoons water until the mixture forms a dough around the hook. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead for 5 minutes until smooth. Cut the dough into 4 equal pieces. Form into disk shapes and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each piece of dough into an 8 to 10-inch circle, about 1/8-inch thick. Brush each circle with the extra-virgin olive oil and grill for 4 minutes each side. Remove the piadina from the grill to cool slightly. Combine the ricotta cheese and lemon zest in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Spread each piadina with 1/2 cup of the ricotta mixture. Sprinkle the fontina cheese evenly over the ricotta cheese. Arrange 2 prosciutto slices on top of the cheeses. Cut each piadina into 8 wedges and transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with the chopped basil.
ITALIAN FLATBREAD SANDWICH (PIADINA) WITH SAUSAGE AND BROCCOLI RABE
Steps:
- For the dough: Combine the 1 3/4 cups flour with the baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk to eliminate any lumps. Pour in the milk and 1/4 cup of the olive oil and mix until a dough forms. Grease another large bowl with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add the dough, cover with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap, and set aside for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the filling: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 5 minutes. Move the sausage to one side of the skillet, add the onions and season them with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- In another large skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over high heat. Add the garlic, broccoli rabe and red pepper flakes. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the rabe turns bright green, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and sprinkle with the lemon juice. Set aside.
- Heat a griddle over medium-high heat. Portion the dough into 6 balls. On a lightly floured surface, roll the balls until about 1/4 inch thick. Place 2 rounds onto the hot griddle. Cook until browned on one side and bubbles begin to form, about 1 minute. Flip and cook the other side for 30 seconds. Transfer the flatbread to a baking sheet. Keep the griddle over the heat.
- Place some of the sausage filling and broccoli rabe on one half of each flatbread. Top each with the grated cheese (or 2 slices of cheese) and fold into a half moon. Place the sandwiches back on the griddle and weigh them down with a foil-covered brick or small cast-iron skillet. Cook until the cheese melts, about 1 minute. Repeat with the remaining dough and sandwiches. Remove from the heat, slice in half and serve.
HOMEMADE PIADINAS (ITALIAN FLATBREAD)
We looooove flat bread over here, so when I found this recipe at The Kitchn I couldn't wait to try it! It is so so SO good! Super soft and chewy. And super simple! I served them stuffed with chicken, pesto, and salad and folded them like a taco but they are so versatile they'd be good with most anything you can come up with!...

Steps:
- 1. In a large mixing bowl mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Drop the shortening into the flour mixture and use your hands to work it into the flour until there are no large pieces left.
- 2. Make a well into the center of the mixture and pour in the water. Stir with a spatula or your hands until the dough is roughly formed.
- 3. Turn the dough out onto the counter or a large cutting board and knead for 8-10 minutes until it forms a soft and uniform ball.
- 4. Transfer to a lightly oiled bowl and let it rest for 30 minutes. The dough can also be refrigerated for several days.
- 5. When ready to cook, divide the dough into 6-8 pieces (6 for small ones or 8 for large). Shape each pieces into a ball.
- 6. Use a rolling pin to roll them out thinly. About 9 inches around and 1/8" thick. Prick them with a fork so they don't puff up too much.
- 7. Set a cast iron skillet over medium to high heat (I used a non stick skillet and it worked just fine too). When the pan is really hot start cooking the piadinas. Cook them one at a time for one to two minutes per side or until toasted brown spots start forming.
- 8. Transfer to a clean dish towel and cover them to keep warm. They are best eaten right away but they will keep well in a plastic bag on the counter for a couple days.
- 9. Fill with your desired filling or eat with hummus!

PIADINA (ITALIAN FLATBREAD)
Piadina or piada is an ancient Italian flatbread made with just a few ingredients: flour, water or milk, olive oil or lard, salt, and sometimes baking soda. This recipe adds sourdough starter to the mix to add the flavors of fermented flour and water, and the option to ferment the entire dough. Piadinas are so delicious and versatile; you can try this recipe with different flour varieties and serve the piadinas with savory or sweet fillings.

Steps:
- Combine the ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly. The baking soda is optional; remember to use half the salt if used.
- Knead the dough on your work surface for a few minutes. Add water and flour as needed for a hand-kneadable hydration.
- Cover the dough and let it rest anywhere from 30 minutes to several days in the refrigerator depending on the degree of fermentation desired.
- Divide the dough in six pieces and form each piece into a ball. Cover and let rest about 15 minutes.
- Begin heating a cast iron pan (10-12 inches diameter) on the stove on medium heat.
- Using a rolling pin, roll out a dough ball into a circle 9-10 inches in diameter and 1/8-to-1/4 inch thick. If you want a uniform circle, you can use a bowl as a dough cutter.
- Set the round of dough on the hot pan and dock it with a fork to prevent bubbles from forming. Cook each side for 1-2 minutes until it has medium brown spots.
- I like to roll out each ball while the previous one is cooking, but you can pre-roll the six piadina if you prefer. You'll want to wait to heat up the pan until you're almost finished rolling if you prep all six piadina.
- Lay a tea towel on a plate and stack the warm piadinas on it. Wrap the towel around the flatbreads to keep them warm and soft.
- Serve wrapped around a variety of fillings: proscuitto, cheese, and arugula; a scrambled egg sandwich, or as a dessert with nutella and fruit. The piadinas and fillings can be re-grilled on the stovetop if desired.

Steps:
- Stir the milk, margarine, and yogurt together in a bowl.
- Mix the flour, salt, baking powder, and egg white in a large bowl. Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture and work the mixture together with your hands until the dough separates from the sides of the bowl, adding flour or water as needed to get the right consistency, which will be neither sticky nor dry. Cover with a damp cloth and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 12 pieces and roll into balls. Roll and stretch each ball to about 1/8-inch thick and 8 inches in diameter.
- Lightly oil a cast iron skillet and place over medium-low heat. Cook the dough in the hot skillet until it begins to set, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Pierce the dough with a fork 3 to 4 times while it cooks. Wrap the finished pieces in a towel until ready to serve.
