To make peeling the tomatoes easier, put them briefly into boiling water. To keep the peas green and tasty, scald them in boiling water. |

 |
In order to avoid pealing tomatoes, you can use cherry tomatoes. Tender and sweet, all you'll have to due is cube them. To vary the recipe you can substitute the cooked ham with ground raw prosciutto.
This wholesome first course contains lots of vitamin B1, indispensable for the assimilation of carbohydrates and vitamin C which, thanks to their antioxidant action, contribute to a healthy body. |
