Piadina (Griddle Flat Bread)
Origin: Republic of San Marino, Italy. The photo shows the Piadina and also a wonderful 90 Minute Bread.
Origin: Italian
Ingredients:

3 cups flour
3 tablespoons COLAVITA Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tablespoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch of baking soda
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh garlic
1 cup ice water, or more as needed


Preparation:


In a large bowl place all dry ingredients, mix well.  Make a well and add oil and water.  Slowly incorporate the flour into the liquid until it forms a dough. If you need to add more water, add a little at a time until the dough is easy to handle.  Knead for a short time until dough is smooth.  Cut into 5 or 6 pieces. Roll out thin to about an 8" circle (the thinner the better). Heat a large skillet on a high flame, when hot reduce heat, brush with oil and place flat bread in skillet,  prick bread with a fork.  Turn over brush with more oil and cook other side.  The bread will cook quickly, when done remove and repeat steps with rest of bread. Very good to eat with sauteed greens such as escarole. This recipe makes about five or six 8" to 10" Piadinas.
