Cuisine for food lovers
Bakeries in Mola are known for their focaccia bread.
Until the early 1990s, there were two privately owned public firewood ovens available to the inhabitants of
Mola, one located on Via Nino Bixio, on the southern part of the town, and the other located on Via Pesce,
on the opposite side of the main Piazza. These businesses served the local residents by providing a place to cook baked goods, primarily focaccia and breads. Typically, focaccia pans were quite large (some approaching half a meter in diameter) and were difficult to cook in one’s home. The tradition of sending items
to be baked by the local oven has passed.
Mola is also home to a large fishing industry that supplies fresh fish throughout the southern Italian region.
