a recipe that celebrates the scent of the Mediterranean Sea, thanks to the use of three ingredients: dried tomatoes, anchovies and capers, bound together by our extra virgin olive oil. A pesto with a strong, balanced flavor and a fresh, aromatic scent.

Anchovies, a "poor" fish and a typical ingredient of traditional Sicilian cuisine, are rich in Omega 3, essential for fighting bad cholesterol and preventing hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. They are also a source of excellent quality protein (about 26 grams per 100). Capers, another typical ingredient of our cuisine, a fruit that grows spontaneously in stony soil and often even emerges from walls, are a natural source of antioxidants such as quercetin, known for its antibacterial properties.

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 preservation 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.
