Schiacciata di patate
Potato schiacciata is an Italian bread variation from the region of Tuscany. The special feature of this bread is that in addition to the usual ingredients such as flour, yeast and water, it also contains cooked potatoes. This gives the bread a soft crumb and a crispy crust. This is seasoned with olive oil, salt and rosemary and is a wonderfully aromatic and flavorful bread. It is suitable as an accompaniment to various dishes or can be eaten as a snack. Making potato schiacciata requires some patience, but the result is a wonderfully rustic bread that is popular both on the tables of Italy and internationally.
