Here Below a typical recipe from Liguria thanks to the partnership with the blogger Cristina Simonelli, we will prepare this beautiful and tasty recipe
The original pasqualina cake provides an envelope of mad dough, or a paste made of flour water and oil and a rich filling of eggs and cottage cheese.
To change the traditional recipe, I made this cake pasqualina where I did not put eggs, to make it usable by even those who are intolerant, I replaced the mad dough with the mixture of “fugassa” and replaced the ricotta cheese with a typical Genovese cheese called “Prescinseua” (similar to Stracchino).

The dough for the cake can also be prepared the day before and leave it in the refrigerator to rise: it is important that you remember to put it at room temperature in the morning so that he can complete the leavening.
