Could be regional.

Maybe it's regional. I find it's also called pizza giana, pizza
rustica, or Torte Pasqualina. Its association with Easter is a
little murky (except for that "pasqualina", of course).

Were your wife's people from the north of Italy? So often when we
look at Italian-American food, we find that it's Neapolitan or
Sicilian in origin.

I am with you, Jill...never heard of them, either. But then, if they are Italian,
that would explain it. My ancestors were German, English and Irish...not a
Mediterranean drop of blood anywhere.

I live in an area with a lot of Italians. I have a lot of Italian
friends. I have never heard of Easter pies.
