Our Homemade Marinara sauce is just that, homemade. Following our family’s authentic recipe that originated in Southern Italy in the 1800’s, we start with a few handfuls of chopped onion, some fresh garlic, fresh basil and extra virgin olive oil. We make sure these onions are well caramelized before we add the main ingredient, imported San Marzano tomatoes, the highest quality Italy has to offer. For a spicy version, try our Homemade Arrabiata Sauce. We don’t like to name names, but let’s just say that you will find our marinara sauce on the dinner table in the homes of some of the most famous chefs in the country. You won’t find suggested uses here because these classics go with everything.

Spaghetti – This cut of pasta needs no introduction. Spaghetti is the plural form of the Italian word spaghetto, which is a diminutive of spago, meaning “thin string” or “twine”. Spaghetti comes in various lengths but the one defining characteristic is its thin cylindrical shape. It’s safe to say, spaghetti goes with everything…
Fresh Pasta – Rigatoni
Product ID: 00059-57
MSRP: $6.00

Rigatoni – Widely used in southern and central Italy, Rigatoni get their name from “rigare” which means to draw a line. The difference between Rigatoni and Penne is Rigatoni have square-cut ends and Penne have angle-cuts. Rigatoni work best with chunky sauces like pesto and meat sauces. The benefit of tube shaped pastas are their ability to catch the sauce on both the inside and outside surfaces.

Product ID: 00059-54
MSRP: $6.00

Penne – A cylinder-shaped pasta originating in the Campania region of Southern Italy, named after the Italian word for “quills” or feather pens. Probably one of the most versatile cuts of pasta capable of absorbing delicious sauces like marinara and pesto. We make the “rigate” version (with the ridges) that allows the pasta to hold even more sauce than the “lisce” version. Penne compliments most types of sauce, both creamy and heavy, plus oven-baked (al forno) dishes.
