Cucina Antica - specialità italiane - condimenti per pasta

We are the only ones whose carbonara contains egg.

Thanks to its creamy texture, even when heated the egg inside doesn't cook anymore and go like scrambled egg.

It is used mainly as a pasta sauce (excellent with spaghetti, ideal with long semolina pasta).

Before putting on the pasta it needs heating in a frying pan for about 1 minute.

Then it needs diluting with the cooking water or some milk.

Other uses: for pizza, crostoni, vol-au-vents. We recommend using the product before cooking (for pizza) or heated up (for crostoni or vol-au-vents).

Can be combined with cheese, cream, peas and oregano.

Typical product of southern Italy, it stands apart from the rest thanks to its bright red colour which means the tomatoes have been dried in the southern sun and are brought back inside at nightfall to prevent the smokiness caused by dew and damp. As they are not dried in a drying house, they are softer on the palate and tastier. They can be used as a starter, or we can chop them up to use in pasta dishes, perhaps adding a drizzle of olive oil, basil, oregano, capers and a bit of tomato sauce. We can use them in panini or sandwiches, by adding mayonnaise or soft cheese and mixing in a mixer or food processor. A quick, fancy idea for your aperitifs. Take a small mozzarella, wrap it in a sun-dried tomato, and fasten with a toothpick. Dress with a drizzle of extra virgin oil and a light sprinkling of oregano.

Mayonnaise ideal for all uses: decorations, to accompany meat and fish, salad, mousses, panini, sandwiches, etc.
