A sauce prepared with 100% Italian tomatoes with the addition of the sought-after Calabria hot chilli pepper to infuse those typical spicy notes found in southern Italian pasta dishes. The sauce is ready to use to season short pasta such as penne, macaroni and fusilli. It is ideal on bronze-drawn pasta or to flavor fish soups.
The sauce is ready to be poured directly over freshly drained pasta. For best results, we recommend warming the sauce over low heat or in the microwave after opening the jar, or sautéing the pasta together with the sauce in the pan. This sauce can be used to flavor fish stews, broths, and mussel stir-fries.
The Calabria hot pepper is considered one of the best chili peppers in the world because of its pungency, aroma and versatility in cooking. The hot pepper of Calabria is grown in the traditional way, without the use of chemicals, using cultivation methods with low environmental impact. This makes it a genuine, high-quality product with an intense, fruity aroma that goes perfectly with many Mediterranean dishes. Depending on the specific varieties and growing locations, its degree of spiciness can range from moderate to extreme according to the concentration of capsaicin, a substance naturally produced by chili peppers during ripening.
