EASTER broccoli cake. HEALTHY
When to make the EASTER BROCCOLI CAKE?
Although it is typical of Easter and represents the summit of the paschal meal, in the past there was competition between housewives for whoever showed the greatest skill in superimposing up to thirty sheets of dough as a tribute to the age of Christ.
I don't remember that in Montevideo made Pascualina (we call it that, Pascualina without further adjectives) on a special date, what I do remember is that it was never lacking in celebrations of any kind, especially birthdays.
In Montevideo it was done without distinction spinach or chard and although I like it the most (liked) it is with chard, I have tried a new formula that has captured me, the broccoli stuffing. It is incredible how a filling can be turned upside down by putting a different vegetable, this filling of Pascualina with broccoli It has caused a sensation in my house and I have fallen in love with it, it has been delicious.
And on the other hand, eating vegetables is always a success, so nothing more to say than to encourage you to do this cake Pascualina or vegetable pie.
Of course, the mass cannot be other than the empanada dough from my aunt Aurita but if you are very pressed for time and you feel like doing this Pascualina, You can also make it with two purchased puff pastry sheets that nothing happens and although it is not the same, it is similar.
The eggs used in this recipe are DEMILLO. The corn-based diet of the hens gives Demillo eggs that characteristic color and flavor of traditional Galician eggs. As if they came straight from grandma's corral.
