Masseria Mirogallo Tomato Sauce with Capers and Olives is a traditional Southern Italian sauce from Basilicata, crafted by the Belfiore family using tomatoes and vegetables grown directly on their estate. Known for their farm-to-jar philosophy, Masseria Mirogallo produces sauces with minimal processing, allowing the quality of the ingredients to stand out.
The base is a carefully prepared tomato passata made from vine-ripened tomatoes that are blanched, peeled, milled, and naturally drained to achieve a smooth, balanced consistency. This is then combined with capers, olives, and garlic, creating a bold, savory sauce inspired by classic Mediterranean flavors.
The result is a “gutsy” and well-rounded sauce, where the natural sweetness of the tomatoes is complemented by the briny depth of capers and olives.
