focaccia
focaccia
Noun
This term refers to a specific style of Italian leavened bread characterized by its dimpled surface and high olive oil content. It is perceived as a rustic, artisanal product, often associated with Mediterranean cuisine and casual dining settings rather than formal courses.
As a mass noun referring to a type of food, it is typically treated as uncountable. To refer to individual units, speakers use partitive constructions such as a loaf of focaccia or a slice of focaccia.
