Squeeze the chicory after draining it well. Chop it into small pieces.

Line a baking dish with the puff pastry and its baking paper.

Crack the eggs into a bowl and season with pink salt. Add the marjoram.

Beat with the prongs of a fork and then add the chopped chicory.

Mix well and add the rest of the ingredients.

Incorporate all the ingredients and mix them well together.

Then pour all the mixture into the baking dish, arranging it along the edges of the pastry and leveling it well.

Arrange the scamorza slices on the surface as desired.

Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the scamorza surface is golden brown and the puff pastry is nice and puffy. Remove from the oven and let rest for about ten minutes.
