Preparation
- In a bowl, sift the Manitoba flour with the spelled flour, add the dry yeast, a teaspoon of brown sugar and mix with warm water and extra virgin olive oil; as a last ingredient, add the salt, and continue to work the dough for at least 5 minutes, until the mixture is extremely smooth.
Some alternative ideas
As an alternative to spelled flour, you can use whole wheat flour, oatmeal or rye flour. For all preparations, however, it is advisable to use a certain amount of Manitoba flour, that is a strong flour capable of forming a lot of gluten in contact with liquids, an indispensable feature to obtain a soft and fluffy dough.
As an alternative to dry yeast, it is possible to use 3 g of fresh brewer's yeast or mother yeast in doses equal to 30% of the weight of the flour.- Place the ball of dough in a bowl, cover with cling film and let it rest for a couple of hours.
- Take the dough, place it on the pastry board and open it with your hands, helping yourself to spread the dough with your fingertips until you get a fairly regular disc. The use of a rolling pin is not recommended.
- Heat a non-stick pan with a diameter of 28 cm: when it is hot, cook the disc of pasta, maintaining a cheerful flame for the first two minutes, covering the pan with the lid. Turn the disc of dough with a spatula and cook for another 2 minutes. The cooking method mirrors that of the piadina.
- When the pasta disc is cooked. Fill it in half with ingredients of your choice (eg tomato, oregano and mozzarella) and close half-length. Lower the heat, cover with the lid and finish cooking for another 3-4 minutes. Remove the piadizza from the heat and serve immediately.
