Home Base Sauce
Summer Tomato & Basil
500g

Tomato and basil, it works. They belong together, they're home. It’s ready to enjoy as is or build on it your way. This 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.

Hot tip.

For one of the best tomato and basil pasta dishes you’ve ever had, simply bring your bottle of Home Base 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 it 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

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. For Lizzie, founder of SNP, food and cooking is a way to connect with the world – it’s what makes life worth living and brings people together from all walks of life.  Lizzie has long struggled with anxiety, and it was during a particularly unmanageable time, that she found solace in the humble act of making pasta every Saturday night. SNP then 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.
