We have been making these sauces in our store kitchen for over 20 years--hand-stirred and hand-filled in heat-sealed jars.  We use only Italian-grown San-Marzano Style tomatoes, fresh produce and top-quality spices. Our Tomato-based Basil Sauce is the perfect blend of chunky & strained tomatoes, this is a moderately thick sauce infused with the fragrant flavor of fresh basil. Serve it with shorter, chunkier cuts of fresh or dried pasta (like rigatoni). It's also great as a dressing on white fish, for veal pizzaiolo, or for slow-cooking pork tenderloin. Our kitchen is NY State inspected and USDA inspected. Sealed jars are shelf-stable for 2 years and good in the refrigerator, after opening, for about a week.
