Ciao Italia

La Torta Grande – The Great Pie (4x7)

Air date: Feb 13, 1992

Mary Ann explains the history behind the origins of the Italian casserole, which was created to evade Renaissance “gluttony laws.” Pork, sausage, leeks and fresh herbs encased in delicate dough make this 14th century Italian casserole as timely today as it was then. Plus, you won’t get arrested for eating it!
