Italian Ingredients
Selected from a treasure trove of produce that runs from Sicily’s olive groves, bursting with the vivid, buttery Nocellara del Belice in the south, up to the pastifici of southern Sardinia, the Balsamic cellars of Modena, and the northern rice fields of Piedmont where our Carnaroli and Arborio risotto rice is grown - all lovingly made for you by our favourite Italian producers.
Elevate an antipasti board with small-batch semi-dried tomatoes from Puglia, grilled aubergines or tender Borettane onions, perfect the flavour and texture of pastas and risottos with superior quality grains, then finish dishes with a dash of our sweet, sticky 1.34 Balsamico di Modena or creamy Gaziello Mosto Naturale olive oil from Liguria.
