Tomatoes & Pasta Sauces
Yellow Passata
Description
This passata is the purest expression of the yellow tomato from Val di Sangro. Without artifice, it captures the essence of a fruit grown in a unique terroir, where mineral soils and a mountain climate shape a tomato that is different. Sweeter, more digestible, and surprisingly elegant, it opens the door to endless culinary creations.
Uses
Our yellow tomato passata is ideal for all types of pasta, from long shapes such as spaghetti and linguine to short shapes such as penne and paccheri. It reveals its full potential in seafood pasta dishes, such as spaghetti with clams, seafood linguine or paccheri with shrimp and lemon zest. It also makes an excellent base for risotto, fish soups and creamy soups, or a delicious accompaniment to sea bream, braised octopus or oven-baked sea bass.
