THE QUARRYMAN'S FOCACCIA
Once, this nourishing "schiacciata" (like focaccia) rich in vitamins, was part of the meagre food supplies of the marble quarry workers of the Apuan region.
The following recipe is a variation of the original.
Buy a piece of dough at the baker’s and knead it. Incorporate the walnuts chopped and "ciccioli" (strips of pigskin and various pork cracklings). Place the 1-cm.-thick dough on a greased baking sheet. Season well with salt on the surface and dimple. Drizzle with oil and bake in a pre-heated oven until golden. The dough can also be strewn with rosemary leaves before baking.
