La vida es corta

Viška pogača is a savory Croatian pie originating from the island of Vis. The dough is quite similar to that of focaccia, consisting of flour, salt, yeast, and warm water. The pie is filled with a combination of olive oil, onions, anchovies, and spices. There is also an ongoing debate about the shape of the pie – should it be baked in a rectangular or round shape? Regardless of the shapes and the varieties, when this filling pie is paired with a glass of red wine, it is a perfect meal on its own, although it is more commonly served as a warm appetizer. If the same pie has tomatoes in the filling, it is then called Komiška pogača, and it is traditionally prepared in the city of Komiža, also on the island of Vis.
