Directions
Combine pastry ingredients, adding enough milk to give dough a soft, elastic consistency.
Knead well, cover and chill for 30 minutes.
FILLING: beat 1 egg and 3 egg yolks with superfine sugar, add cornstarch and gradually mix in milk and vanilla.
Pour into a pan; place over low heat and bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat, allow to cool and mix in ricotta and orange peel.
Preheat oven to 375℉ (190℃).
Roll out pastry on a floured board, then cut into rectangles.
Put filling on half the rectangles and cover with remaining rectangles, sealing edges firmly.
Brush with beaten egg.
Arrange on a greased, floured baking sheet and bake until golden brown.
Dust with powdered sugar.
