History of the Puccia The Puccia (English pron. “poocha”) is an ancient savoury flatbread indigenous to the Puglia region in southern Italy. It is griddle-fired and then stuffed with a wide variety of toppings. Its shape resembles a disk of approximately 20-30 cm and once baked the flat dough puffs up to create a domed, light, unique and fragrant bread roll. The art of the Puccia lies in the creativity and freedom of ingredients used to dress it, making it the most versatile among Italian street food items. Traditionally Puccias are stuffed with sun dried tomatoes, extra virgin olive oil, salt, “ricotta salata”, or alternatively with sautéed tender broccoli leaves and sausage meat. But in modern times Puccias have evolved to reflect the taste of many and condiments may vary as much as people’s personal tastes and likes. It can be considered as a complete meal, which can be as rich or as healthy as one might desire. Puccia is not the ordinary “heavy” bread loaf for its ingredients make it ideal for a quick and nourishing, yet light meal at practically any time of the day or night.
