Sugo alle Melanzane e Ricotta (Eggplant and Ricotta) 500g Don Antonio

Tender roasted eggplant and creamy ricotta folded through a slow-cooked tomato base — this is southern Italian comfort in a jar. A crowd-pleasing option for retailers looking to offer something beyond the everyday pasta sauce, and a natural fit for vegetarian-focused menus.

Nestled in the hills of Abruzzo, Italy, Casina Rossa is a family farm with roots going back to the 1960s, when Don Antonio first began transforming his homegrown vegetables into preserved delicacies for family and friends. Today, his son Nicola and wife Paola carry on that tradition — harvesting tomatoes by hand, working without additives, and holding BRC Food and organic certifications. The result is a range of sauces and antipasti that have earned fans across Europe, Australia, Japan, and now New Zealand, where Mediterranean Foods is proud to be the exclusive importer.
