Commentary for Berakhot 74:11
טרוקנין חייבין בחלה וכי אתא רבין א"ר יוחנן טרוקנין פטורין מן החלה מאי טרוקנין אמר אביי כובא דארעא
Troknin is subject to Hallah. When Rabin came, R. Johanan said: It is exempt from Hallah. What is Troknin ? Abbai said : Dough baked in a cavity made in the ground.

טרוקנין which Jastrow considers a corruption of טרקטה, the Latin tracta, "a long piece of dough pulled out in making pastry." So Krauss, p. 274.
