    Savory pie with wild herbs, said “Erbazzone”

    Erbazzone Recipe: Reggio Emilia’s Savory Wild Herb Pie. Erbazzone is a savory pie originating in Reggio Emilia, with a pastry base filled with Swiss chard, pancetta, parsley, and Parmesan cheese. This green pie, or savory tart, is made in almost every region of Italy, but I first tasted it in Tuscany, in Pontremoli, where it’s called Erbazzone. The word erba means “herb” or “grass” in Italian, so this pie is made from a mix of wild herbs. Specifically, a blend of chicory, chard, turnip greens, and sometimes spinach.

One of my favorites here in Le Marche is Pane Nostrum, held in Senigallia. Il pane means bread in Italian. Nostrum comes from Latin, something like “our”, you know, like Cosa Nostra.

    My journey, or how I moved to Italy.

    Moving to Italy as an International Student: My Real Experience. In 2013, I moved to Italy to study at the Faculty of Economics at the Polytechnic University of Ancona.

It felt like the perfect image of student life in Italy. But despite the beauty around me, the first year was…
