Yield: 8 servings
MMMMM--------------------------PIADINA-------------------------------
3 1/2 c A-P flour
1/2 ts Baking soda
1/2 ts Kosher salt; more for
- serving
1/2 c Shortening
3/4 c Warm water
1/4 c Olive oil
MMMMM--------------------------FILLING-------------------------------
1 c Ricotta
2 tb Fresh lemon juice; divided
2 tb Olive oil; divided
Salt & pepper
4 oz Baby arugula
4 oz Mozzarella; sliced
1/4 lb Prosciutto; thin sliced
TO MAKE THE PIADINA DOUGH: In the bowl of a stand mixer
fitted with the dough hook, combine the flour, baking
soda and salt. Add the shortening and mix until blended
through and the mixture looks like fine sand. Stir in
the warm water until the dough comes together. Knead on
high for about 5 minutes until it pulls away from the
sides of the bowl and is smooth and not sticky. If the
dough doesn't come together, add a small amount of water
more a tablespoon at a time, until it does. Cover with a
kitchen towel and allow to rest at room temperature for
30 minutes.
Set oven @ 225°F/107°C.
Heat a cast-iron skillet over moderate heat until very
hot.
Cut the dough into 8 equal pieces and keep covered with
the kitchen towel. Working with one piece at a time,
roll out on an unfloured work surface into an 8-inch
round, about ?inch thick. Brush both sides with olive
oil and cook in preheated pan, turning once, until
golden and cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes.
Transfer to a baking sheet and cover with a clean
kitchen towel. Keep warm in oven while you cook the
rest.
In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, 1 tablespoon lemon
juice, 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch of salt and
pepper. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, combine the arugula, remaining
tablespoon lemon juice and olive oil and season with a
pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
To assemble the piadine, fold each in half and then fill
with ricotta and/or mozzarella, arugula and prosciutto.
Top with a bit of coarse salt, if you wish. Serve
immediately. Enjoy!
