Ritrovo presents a classic Southern Italian condiment, smoked tomato pate by AVO. Made from Pugliese sun-dried tomatoes, the smooth smokiness is accentuated by aromatic spices, resulting in a rich, flavorful paste.
Italian cuisine is known for its versatile use of tomatoes, and the story of how this vibrant red fruit became one of the superstars of traditional cooking dates back to the mid-1500s. After the first half of the 1800s, tomatoes and tomato sauces became an irreplaceable part of Italian cuisine, particularly Tuscany’s Cucina Povera. The country stands out with the abundance of different tomato varieties, such as Roma, Pisanello, San Marzano, Pachino - and every one of them has its own flavor profile and use in the kitchen. You can find more flavorful pate & spreads featuring Italian tomatoes in our carefully curated collection!
