Sage Pie – Salviata Recipe | Tuscan Recipes Food and Tradition - Tuscanycious - Tuscan Recipes Food and Tradition

A Florentine century old recipe, very simple and fast to make. All homes had a corner of their back yard dedicated to herbs, sage, at this time of the year was often used. This is the right time for a sage pie. It is not a frittata, or omelette because it is not fried but it can not be defined as a pie either, because there is no top or bottom layer, it is an oven omelette.

mmmmhhhh I just remembered how good fried sage leaves are!

Ingredients
Serves 4

6 eggs
12 fresh sage leaves
50 gr. grated Parmiggiano
2 tbs of Milk
1 tbs of Flour
Butter
Salt

Preparation
In a bowl beat the eggs, add a spoon of flour and make sure to mix it well with the eggs. Next wash the sage leaves well, dry them up and cut them finely, add these to the mixture. Finally add the parmigiano cheese, two spoons of milk and a pinch of salt.

In a round oven pan, heat a piece of butter and add the mix.

Cook in the oven and keep in mind it is a pie, you do not need to turn it over, but leave it soft and creamy on the surface and inside.

TIME NEEDED – 20 MINUTES
CALORIES – 700 FOR 6 PEOPLE

I never made pot pie before, so this recipe was the first I tried. It turned out great! My boyfriend never had pot pie before, and he said it was really good. Will make this again.

I've tried many times Saga Pie recipes, all to which were alright but could never find one that I would make continuously. At least until now.

I once had a recipe for a delicious pie made with cooking apples, sage derby cheese and walnuts. This was topped with a flaky pastry and when cooked served as a main course. It was excellent, but I have lost the recipe and don't know if I am missing ingredients or know the proportions of quantites. Anyone come across the recipe or similar?
