The result is a truly extraordinary chilli and tomato concentrate, which is usually never lacking in the kitchens of Salento.
The preparation of Conserva Mara is long and laborious and requires time and patience. The process begins with the boiling of the chillies and tomatoes, which are then carefully transformed into a delicious puree of a beautiful deep red. But that's just the beginning.
In a second phase, the passata is dried in the sun so as to turn into a thick paté. Even today the people of Salento place it on sunny terraces, to favor rapid and natural drying.

Only when Conserva Mara reaches its point of perfection is it packaged in our special glass jars, ready to delight your palate. This authentic culinary treasure is a must in Salento cuisine. You can spread it on a fragrant slice of warm bread, add it to pasta to give it a touch of spiciness and flavour, or use it as a secret ingredient to flavor your favorite dishes.
