Description

With its Vlach pride….The excellence of the Kasiata pie reminds us of the mountain peaks where it was born. Every time we taste it, we travel to the fir trees and the fog of the mountainous regions. Crispy, thin, buttery…. The secret of its taste, the Vlach passion that is enclosed by the quality feta cheese and butter. A passion that is still maintained every day in the local cheesemaking and livestock farming.

Casiata is a traditional pie, with a strong identity and origin that travels with the indelible Vlach element in today's cuisine. It remains even today an invaluable gastronomic reference from a past generation of people to the present.

Execution Instructions

For the dough:

Add the flour, vinegar, olive oil, salt and enough water (lukewarm) and make a dough. You should have a soft and uniform dough. Divide into 10 equal pieces and let it rest for 30 minutes.

For the pie:

We open the sheets and place them alternately on a buttered baking sheet, buttering them and rubbing feta cheese over the entire surface.

When we add the last sheet of dough, we fold the pie in four in the pan. Then, with our hands, we spread it evenly across the pan.

Spread with butter and the yolks and bake in a preheated oven at 200C for 50-60 minutes
