description
Today's recipe is a perfect pudding for breakfast très chic, but also suitable as a quick dessert. The ingredient is the main tapioca, a little-known tuber is used here in Italy if not in children's meals, but very popular in South America. Tapioca comes in the form of beautiful white beads, which when cooked swell, becoming transparent and soft.
