Santa Chiara’s Savoury Cake

The name of this delicious, savoury cake comes from the days when it was prepared by the nuns of the Santa Chiara Convent near Naples. Serve it just warm in thin slices, perhaps with a dish of olives and dried tomatoes, for your guests or family to nibble on over a glass of cold white wine, while they wait for the main part of the meal. It also makes a delicious afternoon snack. Incidentally, Santa Chiara is also the patron saint of television!
