Pizza Rustica image

This most typical savory pie is served for Carnevale (the day before Ash Wednesday) and then again for Easter. Though many recipes for pizza rustica specify that the dried sausage, mozzarella and other filling ingredients be layered, in the Neapolitan version, they are diced and added to the ricotta filling, making the resulting pie easier to cut into wedges. The listed ingredients are sufficient to fill an 8x8x3 inch caserole. It is interesting to note that some of the folks warmed this dish. We always ate it at room temperature.

This pizza rustica is the best I've ever had! The crust is perfectly crispy and the filling is cheesy and flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pizza rustica turned out really dense and heavy. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

This recipe was a disaster! The dough was too sticky and the filling was bland. I ended up throwing the whole thing away.

This pizza rustica was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a different type of cheese.

I'm not usually a fan of pizza rustica, but this recipe changed my mind. The dough was light and fluffy, and the filling was savory and flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe.

Just finished making this pizza rustica and it turned out great! The instructions were very clear and easy to follow. I especially liked the tip about using a food processor to mix the dough. It saved me a lot of time and effort. The pizza was delici

This pizza rustica was a hit at my last party! I loved that it was easy to make and that I could use ingredients I already had on hand. The flavors were amazing and the crust was perfectly crispy. I will definitely be making this again.
