Combine buckwheat and white flours with water and a pinch of salt. Mix well until soft dough is formed and set aside for 30 minutes. Roll out, not too thin, and cut into strips about 3 1/2 to 4 inches wide. Sprinkle with flour, stack on a floured cutting board and cut into 1/2 inch wide strips. Set aside to dry. Fill a large pot with water, add salt and bring to a boil. Add potatoes, spinach, cabbage and chard. Cook for 20 minutes and then add the pizzoccheri pasta. Cook for 5 minutes more, then drain. Ladle into a warm serving bowl and sprinkle with sliced cheese and grated parmesan. Combine sage with melted butter and pour over top. Mix and serve immediately, very hot.
