Pizza Gain (aka pizza chiena, pizza rustica) Is on the Rise!
No matter what you call it, each pie is just as delectable as the next.

Easter resembles all that is good in the world, but what would the holiday be without Pane di Pasqua hot out of the oven? -Francesca MontilloPastiere di grano e di riso (“wheat and rice pastries”). Happy Easter from Italy. -Nicoletta CammarotaKudos to my beautiful wife (Nicole Guarino Weber). She has made her first and it looks and smells great! Happy Easter and God Bless to you all! -Artie WeberHappy Easter to all! -Fran CantarelliThis fluffy Easter brioche is braided, baked and better than good. -Rossella RagoMy traditional pizzagaina. I made a few!! -Donna M Cece-LaFiuraMy Muganese nonna’s recipe for pizza chiena. The left is pastiera from the Sarno River Valley, the home of my nonno. First time making the crust for the pizza chiena. -Mark D’AmbrosiMy favorite Easter treat, pastiera napoletana. -Antoinette GiudiceMoved to tears… my Nonna Anna’s Easter bread recipe died with her in 1958. My mother remembered it as best as she could, but thanks to my dear friends Patrick O’Boyle and Giovanna Molinaro , my Nonna’s Calabrese Easter bread will be on our table this year after we all reconstructed it from Mom’s memories and typical recipes from Nicastro, where Nonna’s family was from. It turned out perfectly. I hope she is smiling down! -Stephanie Longo
