About this deal

Marinated Lake District lamb rump with slow-cooked potato, green beans, aubergine, tomatoes, grilled red peppers and lamb jus

Still dreaming of the amaretti from that beautiful artisanal bakery in Florence? Or those incredible Sicilian Cannoli you had in Taormina? That’s why we bring them to you! The pantry has many sweet Italian treats like cannoli, amaretti and Baci to remind you of your travels. And of course, we can’t forget the Gluten Free options too – you’ll find all the same delights made without wheat in our Gluten Free section. There is a wide range of pasta sauces available in store, almost entirely ready made to make it easier for you and your family to get an authentic taste of Italy. We’ll recommend which to include in your 5-star meal at home. Roasted guinea fowl stuffed with prosciutto di Parma, lemon zest, thyme and Mascarpone on pagnotta bruschetta, Onions will be necessary for the Soffritto along with fresh Carrots and Celery sauteed in olive oil, a base for a multitude of Italian dishes including tomato sauces. Italian Soffritto is similar in name but not the same as the Spanish “ Sofrito“, in which garlic, onion, pepper, paprika are cooked in olive oil with tomatoes. Herbs & SpicesCoffee is another staple of the Italian pantry that very few people in Italy won’t have it on their kitchen shelves. Often when someone’s visiting, you would offer them a caffè, made with ground espresso beans in a stove-top moka. Younger Italians have succumbed to the fast espresso machines using pods and capsules, nonetheless making a perfect caffè every time. Other delicacies A delicacy amongst many culinary cultures; truffles are a beautifully rich fungus that grow beneath the ground – unlike their mushroom cousins. We have a wide range of truffle products, starting with whole truffles of course, followed by an exciting range of options like tapenades, sliced truffles, truffle honey, truffle oil, green and red truffle pesto and much more! Extra Virgin Olive Oil is what you’ll find at most stores in U.S., and it’s excellent for salads or to add fine touches to any meal, including cooked vegetables and meat. On of my favorite ways to use capers is to fry them. Frying will make them nice and crisp and perfect for appetizer toppings. They will taste like tiny little chips and who doesn't love chips?;)

Quality breadcrumbs are another key ingredient in Italian cooking. Italians love using Italian style breadcrumbs. These breadcrumbs contain all kinds of dry herbs and spices. They work best for dredging meat and always provide an additional flavor and crispy finish to your recipes.
