Let customers speak for us
Why are these SAUCES & PASTA so good?
Authenticity
Gragnano is renowned for producing the best pasta in the world, and Sicily’s volcanic soil grows the best tomatoes. Italy is the true home of amazing pasta.
Ingredient Quality
Lemons from Sicily’s volcanic soil, seared eggplant, and buttery Castelvetrano olives are ingredients you won’t find in big food corporations.
Classic Flavors
Our recipes feature the classic flavors that made Italy famous, like eggplant with Parmesan, a splash of vodka in cream sauce, and Italian black truffles.







Texture
Our pasta is dried for days in the mountains for unique flavor and texture, Unlike most pureed sauces, our sauces use whole, sliced, minced, crushed, and zested ingredients for authentic European flavors.
Small-Batches
Some ingredients are more sensitive than others (ever had a rubbery eggplant?). We gently simmer our sauces in small batches to preserve their quality and flavor.
Chef Balanced
Each recipe was refined over months by Chef Stef to achieve the perfect balance of flavor and texture without being too sweet. Every pasta cut is thoughtfully paired with a sauce in your subscription for maximum enjoyment.

Questions & Answers

Questions & Answers
They’re made on the island of Sicily with delicious and unique ingredients. Read the ingredient statements and compare it to your previous supermarket brand sauce.
In a fraction of the time your food will taste MUCH better with new and different gourmet flavors created by a chef!
- We are making on the island of Sicily chef created sauces that focus on unique flavors and ingredients that are among the best in the world. But to compare, 1 serving at a restaurant is usually around 2 ounces of dry pasta and 3 ounces of sauce. Our Gragnano pasta and Sicilian sauce easily make 6 servings.
- In the USA a restaurant will typically charge between $25 and $35 for 1 serving of a basic pasta dish with fancy restaurants charging $50 or more for a specialty dish. To make the math simple, if you paid the restaurant $30 for a black truffle sauce with mushroom over slow-dried pasta from Gragnano, you paid us just $4 for something even better. Yes, that doesn’t include sometimes decent service, but a pajama dress code is allowed!
- Comparing to retail brands is much harder since they normally don’t use the same ingredients (truffles, lemons, capers, white wine, etc).
Having a fancy, delicious sauce opens a world of recipes just on its own. Our goal is to quickly and easily improve any dish to which you add these items. In your kitchen lifestyle, each week do you spend hundreds of dollars on fresh truffles to grate over your meal? Probably not, but now you can add a bit of our black truffle sauce with mushroom to a grilled chicken breast before serving!
