Why is it called Guastedda?

The name "guastedda" has its roots in the Sicilian dialect. It is believed to come from the Arabic word "ghassat," which means "a piece" or "a bite." This etymology reflects the guastedda's nature as a humble, yet satisfying food that has been a staple in Sicilian households for centuries. Traditionally made with simple, readily available ingredients, guastedda embodies the spirit of Sicilian cuisine, which values flavor and tradition over complexity. The addition of "a facci di vecchia," meaning "old woman’s face," likely refers to the rustic, hand-formed appearance of the pizza, reminiscent of traditional, time-honored cooking methods passed down through generations.
