Description
This sauce is Basilicata in a jar! The balanced sweet and acidic tomato passata is slowly cooked with fresh, aromatic basil and extra virgin olive oil to create a classic, simple sauce that pairs perfectly with spaghetti.
The farm’s vine-ripe tomatoes are picked at the perfect point of ripeness and consistency to ensure unequalled color and flavor. The tomatoes are blanched for a few seconds to remove the peel, passed through a mill, sieved and then set on colanders to drain until they achieve just the right consistency.
Suggestions for use: Heat in a saucepan for at least 4 minutes. Drain pasta before it is al dente, mix with the sauce over high flame and serve immediately. To enjoy this superb sauce at its best, keep in the refrigerator after opening and consume within five days
Rolando raves: “This sauce will bring out the child in everyone who tastes it! Great as a topping for bruschetta, as a sauce for grilled or poached fish, and the perfect base for making a Pizza Margherita.”

The fresh basil flavor in this is unbelievable!

Used this sauce as a pizza sauce with homemade pizza and it was incredible. The best pizza sauce I’ve had. Very flavorful and not acidic! I may experiment with other varieties of the tomato sauces offered, but they are really going to have to be something really extra special to beat this one.
