SAVORY PIE WITH RICOTTA, SEMI-DRIED TOMATOES & OLIVES
Back in Roman times, any dish made with dough was called pasticium. So in a way, we could say that our savory pie has its roots in an ancient “pasticcio”. But here’s the fun part: in Italian, pasticcio can mean both “pie” and “mess.” A playful little twist of language—though this dish is anything but a mess! On the contrary, it’s a star at the table, whether for lunch, dinner, a casual aperitivo, or a festive buffet. It is such a versatile recipe that it effortlessly becomes the ideal travel companion: trips and picnics will taste memorable thanks to this Savory Pie with ricotta, semi-dried tomatoes, and olives. Colorful and full of flavor, it’s a dish that delights kids and adults alike. Quick and easy to prepare, it fills your kitchen with the most inviting aroma while it bakes, rewarding your patience with unforgettable taste.
And we won’t even challenge you to resist sneaking a few bites while you’re cooking—because why should you? A couple of olives, a few semi-dried tomatoes, or some cubes of provolone are enough to brighten even the dullest day and turn cooking into a moment of pure joy to share with the ones you love.
