Tirotto, or you could call it sciacchata, or you can refer to it as focaccia… Originally from Mantua, it is prepared with a large amount of onions. ?
You will need:
- 500g Flour
- 300g Water
- 8g Fresh yeast
- 500g Onions
- 100g Rendered lard
- 10g Salt
To start, thinly slice the onions.
Now, pour water into a bowl, add yeast, and then flour.
After a couple of minutes, add salt and rendered lard.
Then add the onions and knead. The dough will be quite sticky.
Grease a bowl with olive oil, place the dough, cover, and leave it for about 1 hour at room temperature.
Then grease a baking sheet and spread the dough, shaping it neatly with your hands (about 1.5 cm thick).
Leave the dough for another 20-30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
Bake the focaccia for 30-40 minutes.
