Italy's Coccoi E Corcoriga Flatbread Made Almost Entirely Of Vegetables
By ERIN SHAW
When you think of Italian food, you might think of Tuscan wines, Neapolitan pizza, or Roman pasta, but the country contains multitudes of lesser-known yet equally delicious foods. The island of Sardinia is a strong contender for incredibly appetizing, unique eats like their delicious flatbread made mostly of vegetables.
Unless you’ve visited Sardinia, you probably haven’t heard about the island’s tasty treat called coccoi e corcoriga, which is made with butternut squash, zucchini, onion, olive oil, Parmigiano Reggiano, tomato paste, and a bit of all-purpose flour. To make the flatbread, you’ll need to start by grating your squash, zucchini, and onion.
Once grated, add your cheese, three tablespoons of tomato paste, two tablespoons of olive oil, salt and pepper to taste, and optional chopped basil or parsley. Then add some flour to your mixture to form a loose dough and bake on a sheet pan at 395 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 minutes until crisp and golden brown.
