What are the roots of your Italian food maker? Villa Bertolli dates back to 1865 and the Tuscan town of Lucca. Francesco Bertolli sold many fine products, and by the end of the 19th century was exporting olive oil to major cities across the United States. 140 years later, Bertolli still sells quality products, including premium pasta sauces, such as this one.
OK, let's get down to brass tacks. Have you tried Bertolli sauces? If not, then you should, I find them to be quite good, with a pleasing level of spices. But, one problem is that the bottles are too large, and I hate leaving half-full bottles of sauce in my refrigerator. Well, enter this convenient pouch. I don't often cook for large parties, so I like this smaller portion that allows me to cook, and leave no unnecessary bottles around.
You can't please all the people all the time, right? Well, let's just say that I am quite pleased. I love this sauce, and I love the convenient pouch. I highly recommend this product!

Tomato sauce can be fantastic or flavorless, divine or dreary, and is often revered as a skill to master. Restaurant-style sauces are much more appealing to the senses, but often difficult to replicate at home for special occasions and a near impossibility for everyday dining. With an appealing innovation that will excite sauce lovers, the new Bertolli Premium Pasta Sauce in a pouch delivers three tempting recipes in a convenient microwavable pouch for two that cooks in only 90 seconds.
"Bertolli Premium Pasta sauce in a pouch are excellent option for the home chef, because they offer convenience without sacrificing quality," according to famed celebrity chef Rocco DiSpirito. "My passion for empowering the home chef has allowed me to appreciate and rely on short cut foods such as Bertolli's new sauce pouch, to help encourage people to be enjoy cooking at home with creative and fresh ingredients to add quality of any dish you prepare."
Bertolli Premium pasta sauces in a pouch are restaurant inspired sauces. Each sauce features "hero" ingredients (like succulent olives, earthy mushrooms, and plump plum tomatoes) in a thick base of crushed tomatoes. They are then finished off with sauteed onions and garlic; and 100% Bertolli Olive Oil, aimed to inspire discerning palates. Bertolli Premium pasta sauce contains flavorful crushed tomatoes rather than the tomato paste typically found in jarred sauce. These sauces use the natural sweetness of carrot juice so they contain no added sugar or artificial sweeteners. They meet the FDA requirements for being low in saturated fat, as they have one gram or less of saturated fat per serving. Each Bertolli Premium pasta sauce celebrates succulent and delicious ingredients; just like an Italian Chef's sauce would.
Surprisingly, Bertolli brings these sauces to consumers through innovations in design as well as taste: the sauces come in a convenient microwavable, fresh-taste-protection pouch. They are quick and easy to prepare, ready in 90 seconds, allowing more time to savor and enjoy a dinner for two. Available in three delicious varieties: Champignon and Portobello Mushroom--a complimentary combination of earthy champignons and tender portobellos; Sun Ripened Tomato and Olive--a celebration of ripe and plentiful black olives; and Summer Crushed Tomato and Basil--a dedication to ripe plum tomatoes, basking in the summer sun and harvested at the peak of freshness.

Then you will love this. I actually like this better than some of the jar sauces out there. If you enjoy intense flavor then you can just add a second package. It's very creamy and once you start eating it it's hard to stop. My husband is not big on pasta, but when I made it with this sauce he couldn't get enough.

Bertolli Alfredo Sauce Review

This is basically a cream sauce; there is some garlic taste, but very little cheesy flavor. It's a good base for adding your own flavors to, though it's kind of expensive to use it for that.

The classic italian favorite, made with fresh dairy and aged Parmesan cheese. Simply delicious.

Knorr Pesto Sauce Mix, 0.5-Ounce Packages (Pack of 12) Review

This stuff is nasty. My wife bought it and I about puked when I read the ingredient list on the back. The first three ingredients are salt, sugar, and corn starch. Yummy! The package my wife bought has basil listed *after* spinach. Parmesean cheese was somewhere at the end after monosodium glutamate. I suppose it tastes better than Soylent Green, but still....If you want prepackaged Pesto mix, go with McCormick's which at leasts lists basil and parmasean cheese as the first two ingredients.

Scarpetta Tomato and Artichoke Bruschetta Topping, 15.8-Ounce Containers (Pack of 4) Review

This tastes exactly like it is homemade. The jar is so generous with artichokes, I was shocked. The seasoning is mild and it is tasty on chicken with added fresh Parmasean cheese. I also tried it with bruschetta bread and found I ate too many pieces! In fact it was dinner one night with a salad.There are so many uses for this sauce. If you like tomatoes and artichokes, you will love this product. When you read other reviews you will see adverse comments on packaging. I think the manufacturer must have corrected it since the jars came in a nicely made, well fitting box lined with styrofoam on the top and bottom and dividers. The product containers are thick plastic with a screw on lid that could also be reused. I washed a couple in my DW and they held up perfectly.

Gluten free. Vegetarian. No sugar. No preservatives. Low count on carbs, fat and cholesterol. This container is microwave, freezer and dishwasher safe! Bruschetta's very simplicity lends itself to countless variations. Served warm or cold, use as a bake sauce or condiment for fish or poultry, in the oven or on the grill. Mix with pasta for a fantastic cold pasta salad. Bruschetta knows no season! With very little effort, you can create one of the great rustic dishes of Italy. Tradition: Served as a popular appetizer in ancient Rome, bruschetta was made in the summer when local Roma tomatoes were at their peak. The bread was grilled and flavored by rubbing it with garlic and olive oil and topped with tomatoes blended into a sauce. We've recreated this tradition using authentic recipes and savory ingredients for you to enjoy all year long.

Scarpetta Tuscan Vodka Sauce, 19.8-Ounce Jar (Pack of 4) Review

I've ordered this sauce several times and fall in love each time. The vodka sauce makes plain pasta a restaurant-worthy dish. Spoon it over chicken, toss it with shrimp, add it to pork, the options are endless. The flavors are just right. My seven-year old loves it as much as my husband and I do.
There used to be several customers reviews, which were so outstanding I bought it the first time just based on what I read. Sometimes the packaging is not the most secure, so check all of the jars when you get them. Some people have had jars crack and I had a couple that opened. They weren't opened enough to spill, but when I removed the plastic cap, I could see that the inner seal was opened. Amazon sent more immediately, so I have continued to order them again and again.
I'm glad this comes in a four pack because any time I open a jar, it's gone within the hour.
Update:
Amazon has improved their packaging since I posted my review, such an improvement that it is worth an update given the earlier concerns about open jars. The new-and-improved box is sturdy, with dividers for each jar, plus a styrofoam layer. Then the entire box is packed in an Amazon box. I do not think that anything can happen to the jars now, and I've never had any problems since the box improvement. Thanks, Amazon!

Fresh. Fast. Easy. Gluten free. Vegetarian. We are committed to using only fresh and natural ingredients in our authentic Italian recipes. Great over pasta, lasagna and pizza. Simmer over chicken, meat or fish. These sauces offer many possibilities for use in easy to prepare meals. Conveniently packaged, this jar is microwavable, freezable and re-usable.
