Prunotto Piedmontese Pasta Sauce, or Sugo alla Piemontese, is a savory Italian tomato sauce with a touch of chili pepper for gentle heat. Made in Piedmont, it brings a little more character to the table than a basic tomato sauce without becoming overwhelmingly spicy.
What Is Sugo alla Piemontese?
Prunotto describes its Piedmontese sauce as savory and slightly spicy thanks to the addition of chili pepper. The result is a versatile sauce that works not only with pasta but also with crostini and vegetables.
How to Use It
Warm and toss with your favorite pasta, spoon over crostini, or serve with cooked vegetables. Its gentle chili heat also makes it a useful sauce when you want more flavor than a simple tomato-and-basil sauce without the stronger heat of an Arrabbiata.
