Fugazza: An Argentinian-Style Onion Pizza Recipe

Fugazza is a delicious focaccia-like pizza popular in south america. Fugazza has a soft airy crust, perfect for soaking up olive oil and typically does not have tomato sauce or cheese. Fugazza is most often topped with sweet cooked onions and sprinkled with oregano. A version of fugazza with a thicker crust (sometimes a double crust) and lots of mozzarella cheese in addition to the onions is called fugazetta. Fugazza is easy to make. The dough is just pressed into the pan-no need to roll it out. The onions are sauted in olive oil beforehand to soften and sweeten them. Artichoke hearts, olives (black and green), pimento, thinly sliced ham, and parmesan are frequent optional toppings. Use a pizza stone or a perforated pizza pan if you have them, but a regular baking sheet will work fine.
