ITALIAN EASTER PIE /PIZZA RUSTICA (AKA "HAM PIE")
There are as many variations of this traditional dish as there are names for it (Pizza Rustica, Carnival Pie, Easter Pie and Ham Pie are just a few.) Some versions include hard boiled eggs in the filling along with the meat and cheeses, this one does not. Here is my family's version which I still make every Easter. The pastry we've always used for the crust is more like a bread dough (yeast risen), however your favorite pie crust recipe may be used as well. **Please note the different pan sizes, pan preparations, baking temperatures and baking times depending on which type of crust you choose to use. The "Prep Time" does not include the 2 hour rising time for the yeast dough crust. Note: The 2nd ingredient for the yeast dough crust should be leaf lard (or butter). Recipezaar will not accept the correction and insists on listing it as "leaves lard".

Steps:
- Directions for making and using the yeast dough crust: In a cup, mix yeast and warm water together.
- Place flour on a pastry board, add leaf lard (or butter), salt, pepper and yeast/water mixture.
- Work together well until dough forms, continue working the dough until it is elastic and smooth.
- Place dough in a deep dish, cover and allow it to rise in a warm place for 2 hours, or until doubled in volume.
- When dough has risen, cut into 2 pieces.
- Stretch one piece to fit into a greased 9 x 2 1/2-inch round cake pan.
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Prepare filling as described below (steps #19 to #22).
- After filling the dough lined pan, stretch second piece of dough and place over the filling, pressing the edges closed.
- If there is a lot of excess dough left on the edge, carefully trim some, but leave enough to flute the sealed edge.
- (I like to brush the crust with a bit of beaten egg before baking, to give it a gloss.) Directions for using a regular pie crust dough: Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Prepare pastry and line a 10 inch pie pan.
- Prick dough with a fork, and sprinkle with a bit of flour.
- Prepare filling as described below (steps #19 to #22).
- Pour mixture into pastry lined pie tin and cover with top crust.
- Leave about a 1/2 to 3/4-inch overhang.
- Fold dough under and back, and flute edge.
- Cut slits in top crust to allow steam to escape.
- Directions for making the Filling: Cut sausage into small pieces (or remove from casings and crumble), place in frying pan and brown lightly in 2 Tablespoons of water.
- In a large bowl, combine ricotta, mozzarella, salt and pepper; add eggs one at a time, beating with a wooden spoon after each addition.
- Add cooked sausage, prosciutto, ham, parsley and grated cheese to ricotta mixture.
- Blend well.
- Fill dough lined pan with mixture.
- Directions for Baking: For Regular Pie Crust: Bake the pie for 15 minutes in preheated (400°) oven, lower oven temperature to 325°F and continue baking for 45-50 minutes more.
- Remove from oven and let pie "settle" for about 10 minutes before slicing if you are going to serve it warm; otherwise let pie cool and refrigerate when cooled.
- Pie can be served either warm or cold.
- Slices can be reheated in the microwave.
- For Yeast Dough Crust: Bake the pie in a preheated 375°F oven for 45-50 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let pie "settle" for about 10 minutes before slicing if you are going to serve it warm; otherwise let pie cool and refrigerate when cooled.

HEARTY HAM PIE
I've been making this pie for a few years now. I like to vary the vegetables and meat depending on what I have on hand. I've made it with leftover turkey, sausage and lamb roast. In summer, it's a perfect brunch meal with a salad; in winter, add a loaf of homemade bread for a great dinner.

ANNA'S EASTER HAM PIE
This recipe was passed down to me by Anna, my husband's Italian grandmother. It was passed down to her by her mother, and she was kind enough to share it. She calls it an 'Easter pie,' but it's great any time of year.

- To make the dough: Mix and knead together all of the dough ingredients — by hand, in a mixer, or in a bread machine — until you've made a soft, smooth dough., Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover, and allow it to rise for 1 to 2 hours, until it's not quite doubled in bulk., To make the filling: While the dough is rising, stir together the eggs, ricotta, mozzarella, Parmesan, salt, and pepper., Stir in the ham, salami, and pepperoni., Divide the filling in half (each about 4 1/2 cups, 36 ounces, 1020g), and refrigerate., Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Two of the pieces will be bottom crusts, and should be just slightly larger than the other two pieces., Place one of the larger pieces of dough on a lightly greased silicone rolling mat, or lightly greased work surface.
- Roll it into a circle that's about 16" in diameter; go away for 5 minutes, then come back; the circle will probably have shrunk., Roll it out again, and drape it into the pie plate, anchoring the edges to the pan by folding them underneath the rim; you don't want it shrinking down the sides of the pan while you're rolling the other crust., Roll one of the smaller pieces of dough the same way you did the larger, giving it time to shrink and then rolling again, if necessary., Line the bottom crust with half the prosciutto slices.
