Instructions
1
Prep
Combine 240g flour, 0.5 tsp salt, and 0.25 tsp baking powder in a bowl. Rub in 40g lard or stir in olive oil until evenly dispersed. Pour in 120ml warm water, bring together with a fork, then knead on a board 3 minutes until smooth. Divide dough in half, wrap each portion in cling film, and rest 10 minutes at room temperature.
2
Heat
Place a heavy dry skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat for 2 minutes until hot. While pan heats, roll first dough portion on a lightly floured board into a thin round, 22cm wide and 2mm thick.
3
Toast
Lay dough onto the hot dry pan. Cook 90 seconds until light brown spots appear and surface bubbles. Flip with tongs, cook 60 seconds on the second side until flecked with golden-brown spots but still pliable. Transfer to a board and repeat with second dough portion.
4
Build
Spread 60g squacquerone over half of each warm piadina, leaving 1cm border. Layer 60g prosciutto slices over cheese on each, pile 30g rocket on top of each, grind over black pepper to taste, drizzle with 1 tsp balsamic on each.
5
Wrap and plate
Fold the empty half of each piadina over the filling, enclosing it completely. Cut each diagonally in half. Serve immediately while the piadina is still warm and the cheese softens slightly against it.
