BARILLA PASTA SAUCE

INTERNATIONAL BRANDS

Walk in to a supermarket in New Zealand 20 years ago, and you would be hard-pressed to find a pasta sauce - let alone the myriad of pasta sauces that are available today to accompany Kiwis' blossoming predilection for pasta.

The popular 'pomodoro' - a simple blend of tomatoes and olive oil - was originally created by the poor of Naples as the 'perfect pair' for pasta.  But as traditional red sauces were taken across Italy, then by immigrants to the US and the world, chefs explored using regional ingredients to create delicious dishes that would allow the individual flavours to shine.

It's the same principle that has guided the creation of Barilla Pasta Sauces - an authentic, premium collection of pasta sauces which combines the superb aroma, colour and flavour of Italian food.

William Aitken has selected 6 of the most popular Barilla sauces to bring to New Zealand consumers - Arrabbiata (garlic and red chili), Basilico (basil, garlic and onions), Napoletana (garlic and basil), Base per Bolognese (the ideal base for your homemade bolognese sauce),  Ricotta (tomato with a creamy ricotta) and Puttanesca (olives and capers).  And to top it all off, we also import a genuine Genovese Basil Pesto.  Buon Appetito!
