rustica
country style
Exactly what exactly makes something like a panino rustico is in the eye of the beholder. Often it is the plain or simplest version of a recipe. Pane rustico is generally made of less refined flour.
A rustica can also mean a big sausage roll or any savoury dish wrapped in pastry: see pizza rustica.
