Torta rustica spinaci, also known as spinach torta or spinach pie, is a savory Italian dish typically served as a main course or as an appetizer. It is a type of savory pie made with a flaky pastry crust and filled with spinach, cheese, and sometimes other vegetables or meats.
To make torta rustica spinaci, a pastry crust is typically made by combining flour, butter, and water until a dough is formed. The dough is then rolled out and used to line a baking dish or pie tin. A filling made from spinach, cheese, eggs, and sometimes other ingredients such as onion or garlic, is then prepared and poured into the crust.
The filling is typically made by sautéing spinach until it wilts, then combining it with ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, eggs, and seasonings such as salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Sometimes other ingredients such as sausage or bacon are also added to the filling for additional flavor.
The filled crust is then baked in the oven until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. The resulting torta rustica spinaci is a delicious and satisfying dish that can be served warm or at room temperature, and is often accompanied by a simple salad or other side dishes.
