Porcini Mushroom Tomato Pasta Sauce, 480g

A tomato sauce with porcini is good and comforting! Let's take advantage of the wonderful gifts that Italian woods offer us by bringing back to our palate classic flavors and old traditions, such as good tagliatelle pasta or involtini (meat rolls) served with a tasty Favuzzi porcini mushroom sauce! It is cooked over a flame and has a rich texture with pieces of porcinis. The De Laurentiis family from Abruzzo prepares this sauce with the best local ingredients.

This Italian sauce is the perfect accompaniment to all your favorite pasta dishes, especially tagliatelle, penne or topping involtini (meat rolls). It is also delicious spooned over polpettes and arancini. Authentically Italian pasta dishes are not served swimming in sauce. Average proportions are 375 mL (1 ½ cup) tomato sauce for 500 g (1 lb) pasta. Don't throw away all your pasta cooking water: it's a good idea to add a bit to your sauce. Mix in ¼ to ½ cup (or a ladleful) cooking water with the sauce before adding the pasta. The salted, starchy water will enhance flavours and thicken the sauce, helping it stick to the pasta.

Nothing rivals with the taste of Italian tomatoes ripened under the Mediterranean sun and seasoned with fresh, locally grown aromatics. If our sauces have a velvety texture, comparable to a homemade sauce, it is partly because they are prepared in small batches and cooked over an open flame, the same technique traditionally used by Italian mammas, allowing the water to evaporate gradually.
