Fugazza

Similar to the Genovese focaccia, fugazza is one of many traditional Argentinian dishes that was influenced by the Italian cuisine. It is made with sourdough and comes topped with a generous amount of caramelized onions. Fugazza's crust is usually a bit thicker, but neutral in flavor.


Some typical Mediterranean ingredients are occasionally added to the dish, such as sliced olives, artichokes, and often mozzarella and grated parmesan cheese or chedder. However, the simple, traditional version, which includes sautéed caramelized onions and oregano is still the favorite among Argentinians.


Fugazza is baked in the oven, sliced into triangle shapes, and served warm. The most common variety of the dish is called fugazzeta, made with two layers of dough with mozzarella cheese in between.
