What it is

Kosovo's everyday pie: hand-stretched dough filled with cheese, spinach, leeks or potato, rolled and baked — the pite that Albanian bakeries make from dawn. Ingredients: flour, water, salt, oil (dough); fillings: gjizë cheese, spinach, leeks, potato, pumpkin (sweet). Recipe: 1) Rest the dough under oil. 2) Stretch sheets across the table by hand. 3) Fill, roll into ropes, coil or fold. 4) Bake until crisp and golden. Serve: hot with kos (yogurt), for breakfast and guests. Flavor: crisp pastry against salty or green fillings. History: pite is the daily bread-joy of Kosovo's Albanian kitchens — the same family as burek and byrek, with local fillings by season. See also: Flija, Tavë Prizreni.
