Tomato Sauce with Sweet Peppers
Basilicata is famous for its sweet red peppers, which are slowly cooked into a balanced sweet and acidic tomato passata to create a smoky, rich sauce ideal for serving with egg pasta such as Fettuccine and Pappardelle.
At the Mirogallo family farm in Basilicata, sun-ripened heirloom tomatoes are picked at the perfect point of ripeness to ensure unequaled color and flavor. The tomatoes are blanched for a few seconds to remove the peel, passed through a mill, sieved and set in colanders to drain until they reach 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.
