 |
In order to obtain a more delicate flavor, more suitable for children, you can replace the speck with bacon or prosciutto if you wish.
This is a very nourishing dish; the ingredients provide plenty of phosphorous and calcium, both very important elements when it comes to the healthy development of children's teeth and bones, especially during their crucial growing years. |
