Fugazza

Fugazza is a type of pizza that originated in Argentina. It is a variation of the traditional Italian pizza, but with a unique twist that sets it apart from its Italian counterpart. The name "Fugazza" is derived from the Italian word "focaccia", which is a type of flat oven-baked Italian bread.

Etymology

The term "Fugazza" is believed to have originated from the Italian word "focaccia". In Italian, "focaccia" refers to a type of flat oven-baked bread, which is similar to the base used in Fugazza. The term was likely adapted by Argentinians to refer to their unique variation of pizza.

Description

Fugazza is characterized by its thick, bread-like base, which is similar to the base used in focaccia. Unlike traditional Italian pizza, Fugazza does not typically include tomato sauce. Instead, it is topped with a generous amount of onions, often accompanied by other toppings such as cheese, olives, and herbs. The onions are usually caramelized, giving the pizza a sweet and savory flavor profile.

Variations

There are several variations of Fugazza, including Fugazza con queso and Fugazzeta. Fugazza con queso is similar to the traditional Fugazza, but includes cheese as a topping. Fugazzeta is a stuffed version of Fugazza, where the pizza is filled with cheese and topped with onions.
