Focaccia is popular in Italy and is usually seasoned with olive oil, salt, sometimes herbs, and may be topped with onion, cheese and meat. It might also be flavored with a number of vegetables. Focaccia can be used as a side to many meals, as a base for pizza, or as sandwich bread.
Arugula is a leafy green herb of the mustard family. Known also as rocket, Italian cress, roquette and rucola, it has elongated dark green leaves that are lobed like the leaves of an oak. In the ground, the plant resembles a loose lettuce with long, slender leaves. This herb is related to both the radish and watercress, and the flavor of the leaves is similarly hot and peppery.
