Sammarinese Dishes

Specialised

PIADINA, the unleavened griddle flatbread of lard or oil, folded round squacquerone, prosciutto and rocket — Romagnol, and completely at home here. NIDI DI RONDINE, "swallows’ nests", a baked rolled pasta of ham, cheese and béchamel sliced into spirals, which is the dish most often named as specifically Sammarinese. Strozzapreti, cappelletti in brodo, passatelli and tagliatelle; coniglio in porchetta; fagioli con le cotiche; bustrengo, the dense cornmeal-and-fruit cake; cacciatello; and the TORTA TRE MONTI, the wafer-and-hazelnut cake shaped for the three towers — ⚠ a 20th-century commercial creation and the Republic’s best-known edible souvenir, recorded as exactly that.
