Sugo by Chef Francesco at Greenomic
What is Chef Francesco’s Sugo? Ready-made Italian tomato sauces from Greenomic in 500 g jars, ranging from Arrabbiata to Sugo da Mamma. Simply heat, toss with pasta, and dinner is on the table without hours of simmering.
Sugo by Chef Francesco is the ready-made tomato sauce on the Greenomic shelf, packed in 500 g jars and made for quick, honest pasta nights. These sauces are fruity, savory, and thick, with no artificial aftertaste. Just warm up a jar, toss it with your noodles, and your meal is ready.
Tomato sauce without the long simmer
A good sugo saves you an afternoon at the stove without anyone ever knowing. Chef Francesco’s sauces are slow-cooked Italian-style, ensuring the tomato tastes sweet and well-rounded rather than sharp or acidic. You just warm them briefly and pour them over hot pasta—a good weeknight dinner often requires no more effort than that.
A 500 g jar serves about four portions, enough for the whole family on a typical evening. If you like, add fresh herbs, a splash of olive oil, or some grated Parmesan, and the quick meal will taste almost like it was made from scratch.
Any leftovers will keep in the fridge for a few days and often taste even better the next day, perhaps for lunch or as a base for a quick vegetable stir-fry. Keeping a jar in your pantry is like having insurance against bland dinners; it’s quick to open and always a welcome treat.
Three sauces, three moods
Things get fiery with Sugo Arrabbiata, the spicy chili-infused sauce for those who like it bold and with a kick. On the other hand, Sugo da Mamma is mild and well-rounded, the classic tomato sauce that tastes just like Nonna’s and is a hit with kids, too.
In between lies Sugo Basilico with its fresh basil aroma, the green classic for a quick meal and a great companion for light summer dishes. All three come in handy 500 g jars with the colorful Greenomic label and are ready to use in a flash, without needing to read any instructions.
Which one will it be today? Our tip: If you like variety, keep all three in your cupboard and decide in the evening, depending on your mood, whether you want mild, fresh, or fiery.
How to perfect your quick meal
Always toss the sugo with the pasta in the pan for a moment rather than just pouring it on top, as this allows the sauce and noodles to truly bind together. A spoonful of starchy pasta water makes everything smooth, ensuring the sauce clings to every twist of pasta instead of being left behind in the pot. With a little cheese and a few basil leaves, your plate will end up looking like it came straight from a trattoria. A good pasta night really doesn't need any more show than that.
The Good Hair Day Pasta from the same house pairs perfectly, just as Themistoklis likes to serve this duo, as its rough texture and the thick sugo were made for each other. You can find more for quick Italian cooking in the entire Greenomic assortment, from pasta to sweet finishes. Buon appetito.
