Crispino Mushroom Pasta Sauce combines Calabrian tomatoes with Italian mushrooms for a rich, savoury tomato sauce. Made with 80% tomato pulp and 10% mushrooms, it brings together the natural sweetness of tomatoes and the earthy flavour of mushrooms.

The recipe features Tricholoma portentosum mushrooms, also known as grey knight mushrooms, alongside 7% extra virgin olive oil, onion and basil. Produced in Calabria, southern Italy, the sauce is slowly steam-cooked to bring the ingredients together.

Ready to use, with no added sugar or citric acid, this Italian mushroom and tomato sauce is suitable for vegans and is gluten-free.

How to Enjoy

Warm gently and toss through tagliatelle, pappardelle or rigatoni for a simple mushroom pasta dish. Finish with fresh parsley, grated Parmesan or a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, if you like.

It also works well as a sauce for potato gnocchi, layered into a vegetable lasagne or spooned over creamy polenta. For a heartier meal, use it as a base for a mushroom pasta bake with mozzarella.
