Sage Pie - Salviata Recipe
A Florentine century old recipe, very simple and fast to make. All homes had a corner of their back yard dedicated to herbs, like sage. Salviata 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.
Ingredients
- 6 eggs
- 12 fresh sage leaves
- 50 gr. grated Parmiggiano
- 2 tbs of Milk
- 1 tbs of Flour
- Butter
- Salt
Method
Follow these steps:
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.
