variant of the traditional Sicilian caponata. We have reinterpreted it by making the Violet artichoke the protagonist for a result that is always tasty but lighter.

The purple artichoke has many organoleptic properties that this recipe tends to enhance. The preparation method involves first cooking the vegetables, which are sautéed in our extra virgin olive oil, incorporating the tomato sauce. At the end of cooking, we then add the precious purple artichokes to the caponata, previously processed and preserved in brine, a method that preserves all the aromas and natural characteristics of the product.

Our Segreti di Sicilia line of preserves was born from the love for this land and its traditions, from the scents of our childhood, from our grandmother's secrets and from the rediscovery of an authentic and genuine past. Each product speaks of a specific territory, of a biodiversity that the world envies us. We choose each of them from our own crops or from our network, small and local productions and farmers who work the land with the same passion and respect as in the past. These genuine products are then transformed in our modern canning plant with the help of latest generation machinery. We use innovative cooking and processing techniques that guarantee absolute respect for the original recipe and, at the same time, the preservation of all the organoleptic characteristics of the fresh product and its main nutritional aspects. The absence of preservatives and colorings allows you to taste a genuine product.
