A real Italian pasta!
A simple recipe that our food tester Fabio decided to make, whose success is however determined by the quality of the ingredients used. Fabio tried his hand at revisiting a pasta-based first course, cooked in a pan with the addition of Datterini Mutti Sauce, and then seasoned with pesto and stracciatella: a tribute to the Tricolor and our culinary tradition. “I chose simplicity because I wanted to try to enhance the characteristics of the tomato sauce and savor its very sweet taste. It was a very successful dish, the sauce went very well with the rest of the ingredients ".
The three recipes of Anna Maria
Anna Maria instead surprised us with three recipes, very different from each other and that gave her the opportunity to experiment with all the types of Mutti Ready Meals.
The first recipe that he wanted to try was pizza margherita, and we know that tomato sauce is one of the main ingredients to make it: “I often do it at home and my children really appreciate it: both with the Salsa Classica and the Salsa Ciliegini (also adding capers) is tasty and much enjoyed. " But Anna Maria also used the Ciliegini Salsa and the Datterini Mutti Sauce to cook the legumes in a pan: "After browning in a tablespoon of finely chopped onion oil, I poured the tomato sauce and let them taste for about three minutes. Finally, I added the already cooked lentils and chickpeas and left to rest for a few minutes on the fire, until the sauce started to dry a little. If desired, you can also add chilli or spices. Finally, our food tester experimented with the so-called "Sophia Loren Pasta", inspired by a film by the famous Italian actress, which she revisited with the authentic taste of Salsa Classica Mutti. Curious to discover this dish? "You have to work with the fork, in a bowl, the butter with the anchovy paste (or chopped anchovies) until it becomes a single dough. Meanwhile the pasta is cooking, browning oil, garlic and the tomato sauce in a saucepan over high heat, at the end add a handful of parsley. Finally, season the pasta with the tomato sauce and the anchovy mixture and serve ”.
Letizia's three recipes
Letizia also tried all three Mutti Ready-to-Eat Sauces, combining them with creativity to ingredients out of the ordinary. Here are his ideas in the kitchen: "With Salsa Datterini I created" Cuttlefish in a sweet sea Mutti ": the sweetness of Mutti datterini enhanced by a pinch of pepper is combined with the tenderness of cuttlefish. With Salsa Classica I traveled in the Mediterranean, cooking "Mutti … and it's Puglia immediately": the passata wraps with its authentic flavor the slices of rolled meat, which collect garlic, bacon, pecorino cheese and parsley, creating tasty chops. Finally, the Salsa Ciliegini, with that fresh taste and the slight hint of mint and basil, is the ideal condiment for the omelette tagliatelle: thus a very simple dish becomes gourmet ". What else do you add if not "enjoy your meal"?
The tribute to Benedetta's Italy
Benedetta wanted to use the Mutti Ready Sauces to make some dishes with Italian flavors and colors. "When we think of Italy we think of pizza and pasta. So here are two simple dishes, but very tasty, made with quality ingredients! In my Pizza Italia, the green of Apulian turnip greens blends with the white of the buffalo mozzarella and the red of the sweet and tasty Salsa Datterini. While for the tricolor flagpoles, I chose the delicate combination of fresh sheep's milk ricotta, mixed with salt, pepper, parmesan and the Classic Salsa, with an authentic and balanced taste. In the end, the inevitable touch of the basil gave that little extra ".
Sara's innovation, Ilaria's great classic and Laura's post workout bucatini

Surely they will become a "must" in my kitchen! ".
Laura, on the other hand, is a sportswoman, she often trains, even on Sundays, but despite the fatigue when she returns from a workout she does not want to give up quality, taste and why not, also to the practicality with which to prepare her dishes. That's why he chose to make a nice plate of fragrant bucatini topped with all the sweetness of the Datterini Mutti Sauce. The tasty reward after a great effort!
Davide and "our" recipe for Rice with tomato and burrata

A tasty and simple dish that, thanks to a curious dish, is well suited for a dinner with friends or to conquer the little ones. Davide chose to use the Mutti Cherry Sauce for his recipe, due to its fresh and slightly flavored flavor: “I indulged in the taste and smell of summer given by the Ciliegini Sauce, enhanced by the hint of mint and fennel, and the I accompanied the burrata. A sprinkling of thyme on top, once served, has made the dish a blaze of freshness and goodness. "

Anna is certainly not one that limits herself in the kitchen, she is always looking for new and intriguing combinations, sometimes really unusual. How to use tomato sauce to make .. a dessert! “It seemed too trivial to try myself in a savory dish, then I am a lover of sweets and I could not hold back.
