Tips and Variations
– Instead of speck, if you prefer, you can use bacon. Or, for a vegetarian version, radicchio.
– To add a crunchy note, in addition to the speck, you can add chopped walnuts, cashews, blanched almonds, or pine nuts at serving time 😉
– Instead of robiola you can use any other spreadable cheese or ricotta; while instead of leek you can use onion, although I highly recommend leek, which is truly perfect with pumpkin!
– For an even creamier version, you can decide to blend the cooked pumpkin (either all or part of it).
– If you have any leftover pasta with pumpkin and speck, you can store it for up to one day in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
