Cooks’ Tips:
- Gluten-Free: Swap to gluten-free pasta
- Dairy-Free: Use oat cream or silken tofu instead of crème fraiche and vegan hard cheese instead of parmesan
- To lower histamine swap crème fraiche for cream and swap lemon zest for 1/2 teaspoon of sumac. Swap parmesan for freshly grated mozzarella.
Suitable for babies from 6 months, can be blended if needed. Add some milk or extra crème fraiche if it needs thinning a little.
