CASATIELLO NAPOLETANO: la ricetta ORIGINALE per Pasqua 💛🥚​

Casatiello is a savory leavened cake typical of Neapolitan cuisine, traditionally prepared at Easter. It's a rustic ring-shaped cake made with a dough similar to bread, topped with lard, plenty of pepper, cured meats, cheeses, and cracklings. Whole raw eggs are placed on top, "encased" in a cross-shaped strip of dough, and baked directly in the oven. In this video, our Neapolitan Chef Julia shows you how to make the authentic Neapolitan casatiello using the original recipe. Casatiello is one of the symbols of Neapolitan Easter: its ring shape recalls the cyclical nature of the resurrection and the crown of thorns, while the dough crosses on the eggs symbolize the cross of Christ. The name "casatiello," however, appears to derive from the Neapolitan "caso," meaning cheese, an ingredient in the recipe. It should not be confused with tortano, another Neapolitan savory donut typical of Easter, which however features crumbled hard-boiled eggs in the dough instead of whole ones on top.
