Mirogallo Chili Peppers in Olive Oil

$11.99

Diavolicchi peperoncino piccante

Masseria Mirogallo sits just outside one of the oldest cities in the world, Matera, in the Basilicata region of the arch of Italy. The very fertile valley surrounding Matera is dotted with family farms, locally known as masserie. Since the 1800s, the Belfiore family has maintained one of the largest farms in the area, and specialize in the cultivation and preservation of heirloom varieties of fruits and vegetables from which they make very high quality pantry products. The family uses minimal preservatives– vinegar, olive oil, salt, and sugar– and carries on the history of their family and region through the production of Masseria Mirogallo products.

Harvested at the right stage of ripening, the peppers are selected, left to macerate in acidified solution, and placed in jars to expand the flavor through the prolonged maturation in extra virgin olive oil.
All the original flavor, aroma, and taste are sealed in to remind you of home-made Mediterranean traditions.
