Grown and bottled on La Furtuna Estate in the Sicani Mountain region, our Heritage Blend Sicilian extra virgin olive oil is one to remember. Persistent and harmonious, it hosts a soft flavor of fruity, golden notes with a nose of artichoke, green tomato and almond.
On the palate, this cold-extracted, high-quality olive oil is incredibly smooth and balanced with a medium spice. Take a teaspoon right out of the bottle, drizzle on a leafy salad, or pair with a Bona Furtuna Salt and Herb blend for an electrifying meat rub.
Coating your lips with the soft, rounded characteristics of our signature extra virgin olive oil, this chili infused oil quickly peppers the back of your throat and tickles your tongue, before gently caressing your senses once more with the familiar flavors of grass, sun, and soil. Enjoy with soft boiled eggs or freshly baked rosemary focaccia.
The secret to our stunningly balanced blend lies in Grandma Rosaria’s mint, found only on La Furtuna’s estate. Bold red garlic carries this Pinzimonio blend, lightened quickly by the freshly sweet presence of mint, and given character by the pleasant sting of black pepper and chili. Add this to your favorite olive oil and sop up with freshly baked bread or sprinkle over top of a bistecca alla Fiorentina.
Known as the snacking olive, Sicilian green olives are distinctly pleasant with their smooth, buttery, and subtle flavoring. Spread this tapenade on crusty bread, bake onto a white fish, and serve alongside a crisp glass of white wine.
Made by rolling a square of pasta around a ferretto pin, the sauce clings in the creases of the pasta for a flavorful bite every time. Enjoy our Casarecce pasta like the Sicilians do: doused with the sun-sweetened flavors of Sicily, such as luscious eggplant, juicy tomatoes, fragrant basil, spicy garlic and fresh fish. With the taste of the sun on your lips, Casarecce will transport you to the turquoise shores of the Mediterranean.
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. Adding tomatoes and swapping pine nuts for almonds, Sicilians took the pesto alla genovese and made a dish that's uniquely their own.
This dish has been enjoyed on Sundays and at festivals for centuries in northern Italy. Derived from Bologna, Italy, Ragù alla Bolognese is a hearty meat-based sauce that is traditionally served with the broad, flat noodles of ancient grain Tagliatelle pasta.
Summer’s bounty brings an abundance of fresh and flavorful tomatoes to be savored in a variety of dishes. The pomodoro is a blessing of the season and a staple of Sicilian cuisine, one of the first regions of Italy to incorporate the tomato into its food. This classic Caprese recipe features the perfect balance of rich, salty, sweet, and savory.
United StatesI bought the 3-month subscription for my sister and her husband as a birthday gift. The packaging is very beautiful and all coordinated. The recipe was good but my sister found a problem. She reached out via email and got an answer immediately. We all gathered to cook together and make the spiedini - it was really fantastic! I looked like a star for gifting this to them.
Grazie mille Nina! We're honored to be a part of your family's meal time and very grateful to have wonderful customers like you. Hopefully your sister & brother-in-law share some of the meals with you! ;)
United StatesI gifted my mother-in-law a subscription and she absolutely LOVES it. It feels personally curated with each product is of the upmost quality, not to mention the recipes create the most delicious dishes. It's nice how there is leftover product after making the recipe provided so we can use each ingredient in our own creative ways. This might just be the best gift ever!
Grazie Li! We're thrilled to hear that everyone is enjoying the subscription- mangiamo!
United StatesI bought the 3-month subscription as a Christmas present for my husband, who loves Italian food. We were very impressed with the products as well as the Sicilian recipes that came along with each box. Each recipe and the accompanying products were a hit!!
Juliet, thank you so much for the positive review! We're so pleased to hear that you and your husband have been enjoying everything. We strive to offer a unique variety of our products and recipes every month with the Società subscriptions so there's always something to look forward to!
United StatesThe products and recipes are fantastic!!! However, the shipping and the products for the 2 subscriptions we ordered did not coincide, which presented a problem since we wanted to do cook-offs between our two households! Also, we would appreciate shipping options, as the UPS in our area is very unreliable (our last box was sitting in a neighbor's driveway for almost 2 weeks before they returned home and brought it to us).
Hello David, we ship with UPS and USPS. If you need a specific carrier please let us know with your next order and we'll make sure to use that option!
United StatesExcellent, your products are delicious. The Aglio & Oglio Herb Blend really enhances flavours, the garlic infused olive oil is great on pasta and especially garlic bread, yes! We are enjoying organic spaghetti with your sundries tomatoes And the Sfincione flat bread didn’t last long enough...
Grazie Anellina! We're thrilled you enjoyed the subscription and hope you'll give us a try again soon!
