Description

The Palermo style sfincione is a real delight that I often prepare for family celebrations. The soft base and the irresistible topping of tomato, onions, caciocavallo cheese and anchovies create an explosion of flavors that recalls Sicily. Preparation takes a little time for the rising, but the end result is well worth the wait. Perfect served warm as an appetizer or as a main course for an informal dinner. A tip? Prepare it in advance, it will be even better!
