Ftira is a ring-shaped, leavened, Maltese bread, usually eaten with fillings such as sardines, tuna, potato, fresh tomato, onion, capers and olives.[1] Regional variations include Gozo ftira, which is served more like a pizza than a sandwich. Gozitan ftira is served open with thinly sliced potato over the crust, or folded over like a calzone.[2]

Intangible Cultural Heritage

Following the Maltese Parliament's unanimous approval to ratify UNESCO's Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage,[3] in 2018 Malta's Culture Directorate launched a petition to include the Maltese ftira as part of UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) list.[4][5][6][7] According to a local expert, 'The Making of the Ftira Maltija', as it is listed in the Directorate's National Inventory, dates back to the Sixteenth Century.[8] Following a strong public call, the Government of Malta announced that it would be submitting the Maltese ftira to UNESCO for consideration as intangible cultural heritage.[9][10] In 2020, the Maltese ftira was successfully added to UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage List.[11][12][13][14]

La ftira es un tipo de pan fermentado con forma de anillo típico de la gastronomía maltesa, que generalmente se rellena con sardina, atún, patata, tomate fresco, cebolla, alcaparras y/o aceitunas.[1] La ftira de Gozo difiere un tanto ya que, más que un emparedado, se consume abierta, como una pizza, y se sirve abierto con finas rodajas de patata sobre la corteza, o doblado como un calzone.[2]
