Not all pestos are green. Pesto comes from the Italian word Pestare, meaning to grind. In Sicily, the most famous pesto is pesto allá trapanese, from the Mediterranean town of Trapani, Sicily, and is one of the best Sicilian pasta dishes you'll find outside of Sicily. Adding tomatoes and swapping pine nuts for almonds, Sicilians took the pesto alla genovese and made a dish that's uniquely their own.
Ditalini pasta is commonly used in many dishes throughout Sicily. Translated as 'small thimbles', Ditalini makes for a great macaroni and cheese. This creamy havarti dill mac & cheese recipe is a quick and delicious way to get your pasta fix!
Easy, creamy and delicious, Cacio E Pepe is literally just cheese (cacio) and black pepper (pepe) and pasta. Call it an adult macaroni and cheese, call it a little bowl from heaven, or call it as it is.
United StatesVery happy. I use this in my scrambled eggs, on my baked potatoes, and a variety of different pastas. It’s perfect.
Fantastico, Tina! Thanks for sharing these fabulous ideas. Our Cacio E Pepe is one of my favorite blends because it is just so versatile. Enjoy!
United StatesThis is adds such a nice flavor to my pasta. Bona Furtuna has never let me down! Their quick response to orders is so appreciated. Keep up the good work!
Thank you, Sara! We deeply value our customers and strive to provide the best experience possible.
United StatesOh boy. Just made a bad discovery. This blend makes a "Rockstar" buttermilk biscuits and gravy. This could make my weight control harder. Sooooooo nummy.
Welcome to the dark side, Dave ;). Pleased to hear you are a new fan. We are totally inspired by your creative recipe creation!
United StatesPortion is small for amount needed
Thank you for the feedback, Jennifer. I'm sorry to hear that you weren't entirely pleased with our Cacio E Pepe Blend. Our blend is formulated using our hand-harvested Trapani Sea Salt, and organically grown garlic & onion from La Furtuna Estate. We take great pride in using only the highest quality ingredients possible which may make this seasoning a little pricier yet far more flavorful than other mass-produced seasoning blends.
United StatesLove this blend of spices. It goes with everything!!!
Perfetto! Thanks for the feedback Jay. We love using it on our morning eggs, and some of our team swears by it with their burgers as well. Buon appetito!
