Saturday Night Pasta Home Base Pasta Sauce 500g

Tomato and basil, it works. They belong together, they're home. This is their base for all kinds of sauces. Home Base Sauce is a rich and smooth, slow-cooked tomato and basil sauce made and bottled in the height of summer, when the local Australian tomatoes are bursting with flavour, and the basil most fragrant. It's ready to enjoy on its own tossed through hot pasta, or prime to be elevated by adding further ingredients to create a sauce that's completely new.

For one of the best tomato and basil pasta dishes you’ve ever had, simply bring your bottle of sauce to a gentle simmer, toss through hot, al dente pasta with a generous splash of pasta cooking water, a knob of butter and a shower of Parmigiano Reggiano. Give a forceful stir and watch it transform into a deliciously silky sauce. Perfect on its own but delicious adorned with pangrattato (fried breadcrumbs) and a blob of buffalo mozzarella.

Saturday Night Pasta is therapy for the modern-day food lover, teaching self-care through the humble act of making and most importantly, eating pasta. First came a self-care ritual, then a book, followed by a range of Australian-made pasta tools. Now comes a line-up of pasta sauces and dried pasta fit for those who find comfort in convenience.

Australian ripe Roma tomatoes (95%), extra virgin olive oil, basil, garlic, salt.
