Masseria Mirogallo Tomato Sauce with Chili Peppers is a classic Arrabbiata-style sauce from Basilicata, crafted by the Belfiore family using tomatoes grown and processed directly on their estate. True to their farm-to-jar philosophy, every ingredient is carefully handled to preserve its natural quality and flavor.
The sauce begins with a traditional tomato passata made from vine-ripened tomatoes that are blanched, peeled, milled, and naturally drained to achieve the ideal consistency. It is then slow-cooked with Diavolicchi peppers, a local chili variety known for its vibrant heat and character.
The result is a bright, lively sauce with a well-developed spice that enhances rather than overwhelms the natural sweetness and acidity of the tomatoes—true to the spirit of arrabbiata, meaning “enraged.”
