the Piadina romagnola or simply piadina, is a thin Italian flatbread, typically prepared in the Romagna historical region, which mostly consists of the Italian provinces of Forlì-Cesena, Ravenna, and Rimini, and the Republic of San Marino.
It is usually made with white flour, lard or olive oil, salt, and water. The dough was traditionally cooked on a terracotta dish (locally called teggia or testo), although nowadays flat pans or electric griddles are commonly used.
Piadina has been added to the list of Traditional Agri-Food Products (PAT) of the Emilia-Romagna region, and to the protected geographical indication of the European Union in 2014.
