Nothing comes to mind that I have failed to put in a savory tart. Torte di verdura, sfogliata di polpette, rustico di pesce...they have all been through my Italian kitchen. Find the right flake to your shell and let it become the vehicle for everything your refrigerator and pantry, the season and the place have to offer for a quick informal dish perfect for holiday entertaining.
