    To print the recipe: alessandrasfoo...
    Ingredients:-
    (Large 9 x 13 deep pan )
    For the filling:
    2 1/2 to 3 lbs coldcuts (1100 g to 1350 g) prosciutto/soppressata/ham/mortadella/salame any of your choice
    2 lbs ricotta drained overnight or impastata (900 g)
    1 lb basket cheese (if you can’t find it just add an extra 1 lb ricotta)(450 g)
    1 lb mozzarella cubes (450 g)
    1 lb provolone cubed (450 g)
    6 eggs plus 1 for egg washing
    1 cup Pecorino Romano and/or Parmigiano Reggiano grated
    Lots of fresh cracked black pepper
    For Crust:
    4 1/4 cups flour (625 g)
    1/2 cup sugar (100 g)
    1 tsp baking powder
    2 sticks of salted butter (8 ounces) (225 grams)
    5 large eggs at room temperature plus 1 egg for egg wash
    Directions:-
    For the Crust:
    Step#1- In a stand-up mixer using a hook attachment add flour, sugar, and baking powder, now add the cold butter. Mix until it resembles sand.
    Step#2- Add eggs one at a time until a soft dough forms. If it seems a little dry add a little ice water one tablespoon at a time.
    Step#3- Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
    For the Filling:-
    Step#1- Drain the ricotta overnight in the refrigerator.
    Step#2- Cut up all the cheeses and cold cuts.
    (I had my deli slice about 1/2 inch thick slices of cold cuts).
    Step#3- Beat eggs and add lots of fresh cracked pepper and grated cheeses. Combine the ricotta in it and mix well.
    Step#4- Now you can add all the ingredients together.
    Putting it all together:-
    Step#1- Roll the dough to 1/8 of an inch thickness and cover the pan. Trim the sides and you’ll use that dough to make the top cover.
    Step#2- Prick the bottom with a fork. Add mixture and flatten evenly with a spoon.
    Step#3- Roll out dough and use your cover top. Trim the sides and roll the borders using your thumb and index fingers. Prick the top so that steam can escape. Beat an egg and with pastry, brush the egg wash the top.
    Step#4- Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius) until golden.
    (Mine baked 1 1/2 hours).
    Step#5- Let it cool completely before cutting.
    Pizza Rustica is typically made on holy Saturday to be enjoyed on Easter Sunday. This recipe can be cut in half and made in a 10-inch springform pan.

    My family recipe uses Crisco for dough. I might have to try this recipe with the butter! 🧈👍🏼🤩 Bellissimo! Buona Pasqua ✝️🐰🐥💜

    • @alessandrasfoodislove

      Dear Ariane,
      Using crisco makes sense because in Italy strutto is commonly used. Strutto is lard but not purchased in stores but made at home. Boiling the fat once the lard was made pieces were left behind called cicoli.
      Around Easter cicoli bread was made. Nothing was wasted.
      Crisco very much resembles the lard in consistency. I like the butter because it also has a little sugar in the recipe. Hope you’ll make it. Buona Pasqua and thank you for watching 💖🙏🏻🐣💚🤍♥️

    Alessandra, I love watching your channel! Not only did I live with my parent but also my grandma and grandpa. They came from Monteleone. My grandma was an awesome cook. She made so many Easter pies!! But I did not her pizza rustica because she put a little sugar in with the ricotta and I am not crazy for that. A few years ago I started making my own. Oh my gosh!! Nothing like it…Thank you for stirring up so many wonderful family memories, for speaking Italian as my family did and for the wonderful dishes you teach us all about. Bouna Pasqua! God bless you…

      Dear Alice, now you have me crying. Sounds exactly like my grueling up. We loved with our paternal grandparents and so many memories. My mamma and nonna cooked for 12 and sometimes more everyday. My dad was a very social person so he always brought more people home and lots of time mom and nonna ended up eating cheese and bread if they didn’t cook enough pasta. A different reality of what we have today. Thank you so much for watching. Buona Pasqua a te e famiglia 🐣💖💚🤍♥️
