Piadina - Italian Flatbreads
These flatbreads are popular across the entire Emilia-Romagna region, which is not surprising as they are so delicious. In fact, they are now enjoyed the length and breadth of Italy. Even if you are a novice breadmaker, do try these flatbreads as they are relatively simple and quick to bake. I love to eat these piadina folded in half and filled with prosciutto, stracchino cheese, sliced tomatoes and rocket or basil leaves, but they are equally good with just slices of mortadella. I like to use Mulino Marano 00 flour or Canadian bread flour for best results.

A glorious combination of chocolate and walnuts that couples beautifully with the bitter coffee. Using maple syrup gives a lovely fudgey texture.
Fried Pizza with Mozzarella & Peppers
Ursula Ferrigno · Cucina di Amalfi
There were many, many forms of fried doughs in Campania during the epidemic of cholera as frying food was a way of ensuring that the food was sterilized. These fritta are truly delicious. This elegant version (made without yeast), is a true celebration of anchovies and mozzarella, two of the region’s most wonderful ingredients, so worth shouting about.
