INGREDIENTS

Preparation

How to prepare Rustic four-cheese pie

To prepare the rustic four-cheese pie, start by thinly slicing the scamorza 1 and Gruyère cheeses 2 and then dicing the Gorgonzola piccante 3.

Chop the sage leaves and remove the thyme leaves from the stem 4. Now get started on your savory pie. Unroll the puff pastry into an 11-inch (28-cm) dish 5 and layer two-thirds of the sliced scamorza cheese 6,

followed by a few slices of cooked ham 7, slices of Gruyère 8, and more ham. Then add the Gorgonzola cubes 9

and the remaining scamorza cheese 10. Fold in the edges of the pastry 11. Lastly, sprinkle over the herbs 12

and grated Parmigiano cheese13. Now your rustic four-cheese pie is ready to bake in a preheated conventional oven at 350°F (180°C) for about 20 minutes 14, followed by another 2-3 minutes broiling at maximum power: Enjoy it piping hot 15!

Storage

The savory four-cheese pie will keep in the refrigerator for a couple of days but bear in mind that the pastry will tend to get softer. If you prefer, you can freeze the pie.

Tips

This savory four-cheese pie can easily be adapted for any situation! Start by mixing up the cheese varieties: Choose your favorites as long as the flavors don’t clash. Instead of cooked ham, you could opt for more delicately flavored cold cuts such as turkey breast, or choose speck or bacon if you prefer a fuller flavor. You can make this dish vegetarian by replacing the ham with fresh seasonal vegetables, from radicchio to zucchini.
