The pie sounds so good. Save a piece for me :)

When you will be by me, I'll make a "Pastiera" for you :)

There are no apples in that apple pie! Sounds like what we used to call "mock apple pie." There used to be a recipe on the side of the Ritz cracker box. You made Mock Apple Pie with Ritz crackers.

Ah, ah! Right, there are no apples in that apple pie! But I had not English translation more similar than apple pie to translate the italian "crostata". The real name is "Pastiera", the word derive from the italian "Pasta", because you can find grain inside, the same grain to make the italian "Spaghetti".

It looks delicious!

Off topic: I read your old entry on Sherlock Holmes and war. Excellent.

You must try it, but by me... :) I don't think that reading this entry the Easter pie could be the same that we make at my home :)

About the off topic: It was only a personal reasoning about the human insanity.
Thank you.

I've tried many different apple pie recipes over the years and I must say that I was a bit skeptical about this one at first. I was surprised that when i first bit into it, that my taste buds went crazy. I was truly amazed on the results of this one. it's been added to my personal cook book. Thanks for sharing :)
