Thankfully, it was preceded by cinque e cinque - the most delicious thing ever - otherwise i may have ended up siding with the pisanese.
Mix the water and the flour with a wooden spoon; make sure there are no lumps, add salt to taste, and mix again. Add the rosemary and let it sit for a while (one to three hours). At this point add the olive oil. Remove the rosemary and pour in a baking pan. It should be about an eighth of an inch thick, perhaps a little more. Put it in a preheated oven at 190-200°C (375-400°F). Remove from the oven when one of the corners (or the edge) starts to appear dark. Sprinkle plenty of pepper and serve.
