Boscaiola Dried Pasta Sauce Mix (50g) From Campania, this dried ‘Boscaiola’ sauce roughly translates as “Sauce in the style of the woodsman”. The dried ingredients including aubergines and porcini mushrooms reconstitute into a hearty, tasty pasta sauce when sautéed in extra virgin olive oil.
Marinara Dried Pasta Sauce Mix (50g) “Mariner’s” sauce originated in Naples and nobody is really sure how it got its name – one theory is that it was invented by mariners returning from the Americas in the 1700s with a newly discovered fruit, the tomato. Marinara is a mix of tomato, pepper, garlic, oregano, salt, parsley and spices. Sauté in extra virgin olive oil and add a tin of our delicious Agrigenus tomato passata, cook down, and serve over pasta.
Truffle and Porcini Mushroom Sauce (90g). This luxurious sauce has been created using black summer truffles from Acqualagna in Northern Italy and aromatic Porcini mushrooms. It goes well with pasta and can also be mixed into risotto.
