Yield Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

For the crust:
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons olive oil
2 eggs, beaten and mixed with 6 tablespoons water
For the filling:
5 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup grated pecorino
1 pound ricotta, excess liquid drained
1 cup salami, such as sopressata, sliced or cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 cup shredded mozzarella (or mild cheddar or Gouda)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • 2. Place the flour, salt, and olive oil in a large bowl and work it with your hands until the oil is incorporated and the mixture resembles crumbs.
  • 3. Add the egg mixture and toss until the dough comes together in a dry mass. (Add another tablespoon or two of water, if needed.) Knead until just smooth.
  • 4. Flatten the dough into a disc; set aside.
  • 5. In a large bowl, combine all the filling ingredients except 1 tablespoon of the eggs and 1 tablespoon of the pecorino.
  • 6. Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch-diameter pie dish with 2/3 of the dough (rolled out 1/8 inch thick), allowing for a 1-inch overhang.
  • 7. Scrape the filling into the dish and top with the remaining 1/3 of the dough (rolled out to the same thickness). Press the edges together to seal, and cut slits in the top crust.
  • 8. Brush with the reserved egg and sprinkle with the reserved cheese.
  • 9. Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350°F and bake until the top has puffed out, about 1 hour more.
  • 10. Let cool 15 minutes before removing from the dish. Serve warm or at room temperature.

This pizza pie was a bit too rich for my taste. The ricotta filling was very heavy and the crust was a bit too thick. I think I would have enjoyed it more if the ricotta filling was lighter and the crust was thinner.

This pizza pie was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it needed more salt and pepper. The ricotta filling was also a bit too dry. I would recommend adding some more milk or cream to the filling.
