Ingredients


Preparation

Note - This double-crusted pizza used to be a Christmas Eve tradition in Napoli, but it is now found all over the south. Try for a good balance of bitter and sweet greens. Set rack on lowest level of oven; preheat to 375 F. Lightly oil a 10 inch springform pan or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Dust with flour and shake out excess. Rinse out greens, trim away tough stem ends and slice tender stems and leaves into 1 inch lengths. In a small bowl, soak raisins in warm water for 10 minutes, then drain. Meanwhile, in a pan large enough to hold all the greens, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and garlic; cook, stirring often, until light golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the greens, cover and cook until wilted, 5 to 7 minutes. If necessary, add a little water from time to tome to keep the greens from scorching. Stir in olives, pine nuts, anchovies and the plumped raisins. Cook over medium-low heat or 2 to 3 minutes longer. Season with salt and pepper and let cool completely. Divide dough into 2 pieces, one a bit larger than the other. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the larger of the two pieces into a circle that is 14 inches in diameter and 1/4 inch thick. Place in the prepared springform pan, allowing a little dough to hang over the edge. Fill the pie with the vegetable mixture. Roll out the second piece of dough into a 10 inch diameter circle. Place it over the filling, fold in edges of the bottom crust and pinch the crust together. Brush the top with a little of the beaten egg mixture and poke holes in it to let the steam escape during baking. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until golden and crisp. Remove from the oven and let sit for 15 minutes before serving.
