Ever stood in our sauce aisle wondering which one to grab? 🤔
🍅 PASSATA or STIR-THROUGH SAUCE? What’s the difference?
Don’t worry, I’m here for you! 😉
🇮🇹 Passata is pure, sieved tomatoes, sometimes with a little salt added.
Think of it as your blank canvas!
It’s a tomato sauce base you can use for so much more than pasta —
from slow-cooked sauces and soups to casseroles, stews and all your favourite Italian dishes.
Add garlic, olive oil, basil, your meat of choice, or whatever flavours you love! 🇮🇹🍅
🍝 Stir-through pasta sauce is already prepared and flavoured, so it’s ready to heat up and toss through your pasta.
Perfect when your back’s up against the wall and you gotta get dinner on the table fast!
So, are you cooking from scratch or keeping it quick and easy? 😉
Now you know what to look for next time you’re in our sauce aisle! 🇮🇹🍅
Or like always, there’s always someone around at Napoli Mercato to ask for help.
See you soon.
Ciao xx
