SUMMER IN SICILY
Slow down with the flavors of summer in Sicily. Indulge in a light summer pasta with our Sweet Pepper Pesto and Tagliatelle pasta. Or bask in the flavors of the Mediterranean with Sun-Dried Tomatoes, Capers, and award-winning Forte extra virgin olive oil. Top it all off with Sicilian Sea Salt infused with truffles from La Furtuna Estate, in the heart of Sicily. Plus, cool down with one of our refreshing summer drink recipes.
This bold and beautiful extra virgin olive oil greets you with the fiery essence of young, healthy olives and opens on your palate with flavors of tomato leaf, freshly cut green grass, and rich earthy soil, leaving you with a hint of white pepper in your throat and a refreshing emboldened state of mind. Experience the strength, endurance and vitality of Sicilian terroir within the sun-ripened skins of our olives.
Rinse these salty, preserved capers thoroughly to discover a wealth of vegetal riches in this Mediterranean gem. Distinctive unto themselves, capers have a slight lemony tang, with savory seaside brine overtones. The sensual flavors of our Aeolian capers are used throughout Italian cuisine to give an herbal expanse to any dish. Add to your favorite tomato sauce, sea bass or on top of your focaccia and taste the earthly riches of Sicily.
Creamy, smooth, and undeniably sweet, this sweet pepper pesto exemplifies the comforting flavors of ripe red bell peppers. Each bite emits the honest flavors of unity between earth and sun. Pair with pizza, scallops, and dry white wine.
Savor the sweetly tart punch of flavor with our tomatoes dried below the Sicilian sun. Slice these ruby jewels of the earth into thin strips and bake with fresh halibut, or sautee with spicy pork sausage and toss into busiate with a fresh shaving of pecorino.
Black truffles exude a slightly musky and woody perfume that perfectly marries the earthy salinity of Trapani sea salt. With versatile uses in cooking, our Sicilian Sea Salt with Black Truffle seasoning boasts a mixture of chocolaty, nutty and oaky flavor with a subtle hint of mushrooms.
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!
