Why it delights me: I generally prefer pasta sauce made from scratch, but once in a while when I'm too lazy or need a quick fix, prepackaged sauces always come useful. So when I came across this small bottle of cheesy and tomato-ey goodness, I thought what the heck...I can't deny cheese or anything with cheese...
Filippo Berio has been around a while, I've used their olive oils and I can't complain... But, gratefully enough, my weak will has once again led me to something delicious. This Italian-made delight combines a scrumptious mix of rich tomatoes with the delicate flavor of creamy ricotta. One thing I have to note is my belated realization of Filippo Berio's marketing deviousness. The small bottle is not enough to satisfy me in the long run so I often find myself buying bottle after bottle every time I head to the supermarket. I've gotten addicted, and it's not good.

How I use it: Definitely great mixed with pasta. I've also tried putting it in my omelettes and bruschetta. Their website also gives serving suggestions that you might find useful. See below.
