Peperonata Pasta

Peperonata is an Italian dish or sauce that was one of my grandmother’s favorite dishes to prepare.  The main ingredients for Peperonata are green, red bell peppers (not spicy) and onions, cooked in a casserole dish. It can be a side dish or a sauce for a very tasty Pasta meal or just the stuffing of a delicious sandwich.

Our Dream
A few months ago my husband Adrian Fochi asked me, "Do you think our family business can have a place in the USA?" I answered, "Absolutely!  The system is different but people here love traditional food, especially PASTA." that day Peperonata Pasta became part of our American dream.
His Family and my family, the Sahores-Picaluga, have been in the FRESH PASTA business for a very long time. Our family recipes have been passed down from generation to generation. My Nonna (grandmother) Paola and my husband’s Nonna, Titi, used to cook for the whole family every day.  Their love and creativity on enhancing flavor in their dishes inspired us to do the same.  We believe that every time we recreate their food, we also recreate our childhood memories.  I can still remember when my sister and I used to sneak out in the kitchen and stole pasta from Nona before food was served. I also remember getting a piece of bread and dipping it into the most incredible and delicious pasta sauces. These magical moments keep the people we loved the most close in our hearts.
Peperonata Pasta is not just a pasta business. It is a life style that follows a hard working family path preserving all the food traditions as a treasure.
We guarantee that our traditional, fresh pasta done with the same recipes that our Nonnas created will be our key to provide you THE BEST PASTA YOU HAVE EVER TASTED.
