Ingredients
Tomato sauce, pork sausage (pork, salt, fennel seeds, chilli pepper), Frantoi Cutrera extra virgin olive oil, salt, sugar, onion, bay leaf, fennel seeds, black pepper. Acidifier: citric acid.

Our sauce with Sicilian black pork sausage is produced by lightly sautéing onion in Frantoi Cutrera extra virgin olive oil. Separately, the sausage prepared with pork, salt, fennel seeds and chilli pepper is fried. The two sautés are then combined with the tomato sauce and herbs (bay leaves and fennel seeds). The sauce has an intense red color, with strong aromatic notes of pork sausage and fennel seeds. The velvety texture alternates with the consistency of the pieces of meat. The flavor is sweet, tasty and slightly aromatic.

The meat of the black pig, an indigenous Sicilian breed widespread especially in the Nebrodi mountains, is particularly rich in Omega 3 and Omega 6 essential fatty acids. These fats are considered "good" because they have an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory power for the body. The concentration of these fats in the meat of the Sicilian black pig is partly due to the metabolic characteristics of this species and partly to their diet. These pigs, free to move in the woods, feed almost exclusively on the acorns of the woods which constitute their main habitat.

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.
