POPEYE PIE

Steps:

• 1 Place the pizza stone in a gas oven on the middle rack. Preheat the oven on bake at 500°F for 30 minutes. Switch to broil for 10 minutes and then back to bake at 500°F. (For an electric variation, see Cooks' Note.)
• 2 With the dough on the peel, sprinkle the surface evenly with the garlic. Distribute the pecorino, Gruyère, and mozzarella evenly over the dough. Sprinkle evenly with pepper.
• 3 With quick, jerking motions, slide the pie onto the stone. Bake for 2 minutes.
• 4 Pull the rack partially out of the oven. Quickly add the spinach in what will look like a big mound (the spinach will reduce, the mound flattening, as spinach always does when it cooks). Sprinkle evenly with salt. Return the pie to the oven for 3 1/2 to 4 minutes in a gas oven (somewhat longer with an electric oven; see Cooks' Note), until the crust is charred in spots, but not as deeply as with the other pizzas in this book.
• 5 Using the peel, transfer the pizza to a tray or serving platter. Drizzle evenly with oil. Slice and serve immediately.

POPEYE'S SPINACH PIE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
• 2. To prepare the crust, sift the flour and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt into a medium mixing bowl. Slowly pour in 1/3 cup of the oil while stirring to form a dough. Do not overmix or the dough will be too tough. Use up to 2 tablespoons of water to help form the dough.
• 3. Gather the dough into a ball and lightly roll with a rolling pin until it reaches a 9-inch diameter. Press the rolled dough into a 9-inch pie plate. Poke the bottom of the crust all over with a fork. Set aside while preparing the filling.
• 4. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and the onion. Sauté for 2 minutes, add the cabbage and zucchini, and sauté an additional 5 minutes. Add the spinach and sauté until wilted.
• 5. Add the garlic, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, marjoram, basil, thyme, mustard, paprika, and pepper. Stir well to combine, and sauté for 1 minute.
• 6. Pour the mixture into the prepared crust.
• 7. Bake for 35 minutes.
• 8. Remove pie from the oven and garnish with a ring of tomato slices.
