A Legacy of Flavor: The Pellegrino Family Story Long before the name Rao’s became iconic, the roots of its beloved marinara sauce began in the Pellegrino family kitchen. It was Great Grandma Paulina Pellegrino who first crafted the rich, traditional southern Italian flavors that set the foundation for what would become a culinary legacy. Passed down through generations and refined by Anna Pellegrino and her husband Vincent Rao, this family recipe has always been about love, quality, and real Italian cooking. In 2019, Pellegrino’s® was born—not as a continuation of Rao’s, but as an independent tribute to the time-honored recipes and traditions carried on by the women of the family, especially Vivian and Teresa. Their passion lives on in every jar. What makes Pellegrino’s® special? No shortcuts. No tomato blends, pastes, starches, or fillers—just pure, simple ingredients that honor our heritage. Each jar tells a story—a taste of tradition, a legacy of flavor, and a seat at our family’s Sunday table. *Disclaimer: However, while this family connection exists, it is important to clarify that Pellegrino’s® has no direct business affiliation with Rao’s, nor was it involved in the success of the Rao’s brand. The only connection between the two is a shared heritage—the original recipe passed down by Paulina Pellegrino.
