Fettuccine with peas and ham is a dish that combines the richness of Italian pasta with fresh and simple ingredients that celebrate home cooking. Originating from Italy, fettuccine is a pasta in the form of long, flat ribbons that is usually served with creamy cheese or butter-based sauces. In Latin America, this recipe is appreciated and adapted in various countries with small changes in the ingredients, and although the name "fettuccine" is kept, in some regions it is simply known as pasta with ham and peas. This preparation reflects the fusion between Italian tradition and the use of local ingredients, resulting in a comforting and easy-to-make meal.
