Focaccia al formaggio

Focaccia al formaggio is a special treat from Genoa. Actually the original one comes from Recco, a town on the coast of Liguria but my favorite is sold in San Rocco di Camogli.

But what is focaccia al formaggio? The dough is without yeast and very elastic. Between 2 layers of it there is a white cheese called stracchino. Sometimes inside you could find a special cheese from Genoa called prescinsêua.

Let me say few more words about the dough.. flour, water, salt, olive oil and.. Manitoba, an elastic flour that will help you to roll the dough very very thin.

Outside of the bakery there is a wonderful view on Portofino and Liguria coast..
