PIZZA SAUCES

Mutti Pinsa Sauce Italiana in a 300g can

Rich tomato base, tailor made for pinsa

Mutti Pinsa Sauce is made with ripe 100% Italian tomatoes, left in generous pieces to give every spoonful a fresh, rustic character. Basilico Genovese PDO adds a fragrant herbal note, bringing brightness to the tomato without overpowering its natural flavour.
Its textured consistency feels particularly pairs particularly well with pinsa, where the sauce settles onto the light, airy surface while allowing the crispy edges and airy crumb to shine through. Ready to use, it creates a vivid tomato base with just enough structure to become part of the bite rather than simply sitting beneath the toppings.

How to use

Cooking Tips

Spoon the sauce over the pinsa and spread it gently rather than pressing it completely smooth; the pieces of tomato are part of its character. A light, even layer allows the base to remain crisp while the sauce warms and settles into its airy surface.

Unique touch

What defines Pinsa Sauce is its texture. Instead of being a completely smooth base, the sauce preserves satisfying pieces that echo the rustic nature of pinsa itself. Basilico Genovese PDO adds another layer of identity by adding to the ripe tomato a graceful aromatic note.

Ideal pairings

Its fresh character also works beautifully with courgettes, aubergines, and roasted peppers. For a surprising twist, try adding fresh fruit such as figs or pear to bring a delicate sweetness that contrasts beautifully with the savoury base.

Is Mutti Pinsa Sauce made with Genovese basil PDO?
