A sauce of mushrooms, peas, cream and ham. I have also seen it described as a sauce made with tomatoes, oregano and mozzarella and have eaten it as crostini with a sauce of fresh tomatoes, celery and oregano. I suspect it is simply local fresh ingredients turned into a sauce and spread on crostini or served with pasta?
