Classic Italian Piadina – a Soft & Savory Delight

Ingredients

• 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon (2g) salt
• 1/2 teaspoon (2g) baking powder
• 4 tablespoons (60ml) olive oil
• 3/4 cup (180ml) lukewarm water
• 100 g thinly sliced prosciutto or salami
• 100 g sliced mozzarella or burrata
• Handful of fresh arugula or spinach
• Optional: pesto, sun-dried tomatoes, or roasted peppers

Instructions

1. 1

   In a mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking powder. Add olive oil and mix until crumbly. Slowly add lukewarm water until a soft dough forms. Knead lightly for 2-3 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Divide the rested dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll out each piece on a floured surface until thin (about ¼ inch).

3. 3

   Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Cook each rolled-out piadina for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and slightly crispy, adjusting the heat as necessary. Keep warm under a towel.

4. 4

   Once cooked, fill the piadina with your desired fillings—layering meats, cheeses, and greens as preferred. Fold or roll it up.

5. 5

   Cut in half if desired and enjoy warm!
