Description: Due to its status as a crossroads to the Mediterranean, the Island of Sicily has developed a complex cuisine that blends the flavors and influences of successive colonizers with the traditions and indigenous products of Italy. Simple ingredients like tomatoes, sardines, eggplant, almonds, peppers, and wild indigenous vegetables are combined to create bold flavors in distinct recipes that have been handed down for generations.

What may seem to be an unusual combination of ingredients-tomatoes, sardines, raisins, pine nuts, and hot peppers-is quite usual in Sicily. The pine nuts and raisins are a result of the Moorish conquest. Salty-sweet, pungent, and fragrant with the island's indigenous wild fennel, this condiment is used to make the classic Pasta con Sarde. Ready-to-use in your kitchen, simply toss with pasta. To be strictly authentic use bucatini pasta and never add cheese. Top the finished dish with toasted breadcrumbs instead for a crunchy texture.

Pros: Authentic Sicilian Taste
Cons: none

I opened this can and poured the content on a pund of pasta just cooked. I did not know what to expect: It came out that I really liked it and so did my son who is even pickier than me ! It is definately an authentic taste. Recommended
