                         For the Flatbreads
   1                cup  semolina flour -- (durum) plus
   1              Tbsp.  semolina flour -- (180 g)
   1                cup  all-purpose flour -- plus
   1              Tbsp.  all-purpose flour -- (137 g)
   1 1/4           tsp.  kosher salt -- plus more as needed
                         For the Toppings
   2                oz.  Parmigiano-Reggiano -- finely grated on a 
microplane (13/4C), plus more, if desired
   28            slices  salami -- thin slices coppa or capocollo (6 
oz.), or any cured salumi you like, torn into large pieces
   28            slices  fresh or pickled chiles -- thin slices such 
as Fresno or jalapeno (optional)
                         Freshly ground black pepper

These semolina flatbreads are delicious with any antipasto, and also 
a blank canvas on which to bake cheeses, cured meats, or other 
toppings. (This version from SAVEUR editor-in-chief Stacy Adimando's 
cookbook Piatti incorporates Parmigiano from northern Italy, and 
capocollo from southern.) The cheese melts down to a thin layer - so 
pile on more as needed before or midway through baking.

Time: 1:10

Make the flatbreads: In a large bowl, stir the flours and salt with a 
fork. Add 3/4 cup water; stir until crumbly. Squeeze the mixture into 
a ball, scooping and kneading the crumbs together repeatedly until a 
dough forms.

On a clean counter, knead the dough until springy, 2 minutes.

Set a rack with a flat, heavy metal baking sheet, baking steel, or a 
pizza stone in the top of the oven, and preheat to 500F. Once 
preheated, pull off a piece of dough about the size of half to 
three-quarters of a ping-pong ball; flatten slightly. Using a rolling 
pin, roll it out, rotating it as needed and pressing hard against the 
counter to help it stay steady, until the dough is as thin as 
possible. (If it tears slightly in a few little places, that's okay.) 
When it's at its thinnest, around 6-8" long and a few inches wide, 
rub the dough with a small amount of kosher salt to season.

Peel the dough piece off the counter and transfer it to the preheated 
baking sheet or stone. Bake until the dough is firm and browned on 
the sides, 7 to 8 minutes. Meanwhile, roll out more pieces of dough, 
continuing to place them on the preheated pan or stone as you go. 
Continue until all the dough is rolled, varying the sizes as you desire.

Remove the pieces and let cool. At this point, you can store or eat 
them, or bake with toppings.

To bake with toppings: Preheat the broiler to high and set a rack 
just beneath it. On a large, foil-lined baking sheet, add as many 
carta di musica as can fit in a single layer. Sprinkle about 2 
tablespoons of cheese over each. Coarsely tear 2 pieces of coppa and 
place atop each flatbread, scrunching them slightly. Top with some of 
the chile slices, if using. Sprinkle with a little more cheese and 
some black pepper.

Broil until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes, adding more while 
broiling, if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
