Sfincione

Sfincione is a traditional Sicilian thick-crust pizza topped with ingredients like tomatoes, onions, anchovies, and cheese. It has a soft, chewy consistency with a slightly raised edge, often seasoned with herbs such as oregano. Unlike typical pizza, it’s more bread-like and may be served either as a main dish or appetizer. Historically, it was a hearty, affordable street food for fishermen and workers. Its rich flavors and comforting texture make it popular in Sicilian cuisine, highlighting local ingredients and culinary traditions.
