The Saucerer (gourmet stir-in pasta sauces)
The Saucerer is an artisan brand of gourmet stir-in pasta sauces, to elevate your nightly Italian supper! Crafted by someone with French and Italian heritage, these are bursting with flavour.
You don’t even need to heat them. Just stir into your cooked pasta. All are vegan (bar Calabrian hot sauce, which contains honey).
Before cooking, read up on food safety for people and pets (mushroom, aubergine, onion, garlic, citrus and spices are unsafe near animal friends).
The range includes:
- Wild Mushroom and Truffle Oil Pesto
- Plant-based Chorizo and Smoky Red Pepper
- Roasted Aubergine & Spicy Harissa
- Gochujang Arrabbiata (angry sauce!)
- Eleanor’s Zesty Chimichurri Pesto
- Grasso’s Creamy Tomato Vodka Pasta Sauce
What Brand of Pasta to Use?
The Yorkshire Pasta Company and Northern Pasta Co are both home-grown brands that use British wheat, and sell in paper (not plastic packaging). We think either of these are a great idea to support local farmers, and avoid plastic waste.
How to Cook Pasta (like the Italians)
Bring a pan of water to a rolling boil, and salt the water before adding pasta. Unless you have a medical condition. Not salting water in Italy when cooking, makes it ‘silly pasta!’ You will notice the difference in taste.
Serve with Plant-Based Parmesan
Everything tastes better with a little grated cheese on top. But Parmesan is not even vegetarian, as by law it contains a cheese made with calf rennet.
Instead, just grate your favourite vegan cheese on top. Or learn to make plant-based parmesan! It’s very simple, and once mastered, you’ll never go back!
