Pogača or Pogacha (Cyrillic: Πогача) is a type of bread eaten in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Slovenia, Republic of Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Montenegro, Hungary and Turkey (where it is called poğaça) with variations. It is called pogácsa in Hungary and pogatschen in Austria. A more flat bread, with the same origin in terms of its name is called focaccia in Italy, fougasse in France, and hogaza in Spain.
The origins of the word go back to ancient Rome, where panis focacius was bread baked in the ashes of the hearth.
Pogača is sometimes served hot as an appetizer instead of bread. Hot pogača filled with sour cream is considered a particularly delicious specialty.
Pogačice (deminutive of pogača) - type of puff pastry in Serbia, traditional in Belgrade bakeries.
