I Contadini Sugo al Basilico Fresco is prepared with tomatoes grown in open fields and harvested the moment they are perfectly ripe. These are joined by young, green basil leaves from our own cultivation, carefully hand-picked for a distinctly fresh aroma.

The recipe remains deliberately simple: tomato, fresh basil, onion, extra virgin olive oil, and a pinch of salt. Nothing more is needed to create a rich, harmonious sauce in which the natural sweetness of the tomato and the aromatic character of the basil come together beautifully.

Upon opening, the scent of fresh basil immediately comes to the fore, followed by the warm aroma of cooked tomatoes. Heat the sauce for only a few minutes to optimally preserve its fresh character.
