Perché Ci Credo Organic Tomato, Olive & Caper Pasta Sauce brings together Italian tomatoes, green olives and capers in a savoury, slow-cooked sauce. Made in Lecce, southern Italy, it combines the natural sweetness and acidity of tomatoes with the distinctive salty, tangy character of olives and capers.

The recipe contains 79.91% organic Italian tomatoes and 9.51% organic green olives, together with capers, onion, extra virgin olive oil and sea salt. The onion is lightly fried before the ingredients are combined and slowly cooked, creating a tomato sauce with a distinctly Mediterranean flavour.

How to enjoy

Warm gently and toss with spaghetti or linguine, finishing with fresh parsley or a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. It also works well with grilled fish, roasted vegetables or as a tomato topping for bruschetta.

FAQs Answers to common questions about this product.

Is tomato, olive and caper sauce the same as puttanesca?

It shares some of the characteristic flavours of puttanesca, particularly tomatoes, olives and capers. However, classic puttanesca recipes commonly use black olives, garlic and sometimes anchovies, whereas this sauce is made with green olives, onion and extra virgin olive oil.

Are the olives green or black?

This sauce contains organic green olives, which account for 9.51% of the recipe. They contribute a savoury, slightly tangy character that complements the tomatoes and capers.

Which pasta shapes work best with olive and caper sauce?

Spaghetti and linguine are good choices for a sauce with olives and capers. Short pasta shapes such as penne or fusilli also work well, particularly if you want to combine the sauce with extra vegetables.
