About Pastiera
Pastiera is a traditional Italian dessert from Naples, often associated with Easter. This sweet, rich pie features a delicate shortcrust pastry filled with a mixture of cooked wheat berries, ricotta cheese, eggs, sugar, and citrus zest, often enhanced with orange blossom water or candied fruit for added fragrance and flavor. While known for its unique texture and aromatic profile, Pastiera is a calorie-dense treat due to its sugar and fat content. It provides protein and calcium from the ricotta, some fiber from the wheat berries, and essential vitamins from the citrus elements, but it’s also high in carbohydrates and saturated fats. Consumed in moderation, it can be a delightful occasional indulgence that celebrates tradition and craftsmanship, but it is not typically suited for those on low-sugar or low-fat diets.
