Dear
friends and customers of Italian Harvest,
We wish to thank you again
for ordering more and more of our imports. We've noticed an increase in
the variety and number of food items you order from us, which tells us
you are loving what you usually get from us and are wanting to give new
things a try.
We would like to remind you that almost everything you find on our
website comes from small farming communities found in remote parts of
Italy, or small factories that are known for their products. Even
though foods are not certified organic, they are basically grown and
packaged organically. As you continue to buy our products you are
helping small farmers and factory owners from all over Italy during
these economic times that are harder in Italy than we can imagine here
in the United States.
For this reason we wish to help you with a 50% off sale on select items
that we know are of exceptional quality. We will be featuring
some ceramics that are also selected one of a kind items. Go to the
following link to find our home page: http://www.italianharvest.com/
Sincerely,
John Blount

 Fusilloni (Large Fusilli)
by Pastificio Marella
To keep to the
Italian tradition, let's start with a serving of pasta. From the region
of Puglia where historically they have grown the durum wheat necessary
for the manufacturing of dry pasta, Marella makes one of the best
pastas in the world.
Try our FUSILLONI, large twisted
cork screws that will cook to large size without breaking up and hold
any sauce. Buy a 1.1 LB pack for $3.37, down from $6.75
|
 Calamaretti Pasta
by Paese della Pasta
Another fabulous pasta that comes from Gragnano, a center
for
artisanal pasta in the Naples area, is the Paese della Pasta brand.
This pasta is more "al dente" than Marella. We absolutely
love the CALAMARETTI and they are very
hard to find. Buy them here at
the greatly reduced price of $4.25 down from $8.50
|
 Tomato Sauce
by Augello
Now we need a sauce
to go with the pasta. We are amazed at how
absolutely delicious the Augello tomato sauces are. This farmer, his
wife, and one worker from the tiny village of Caltabellotta in
southern Sicily are putting their soul into the sauces they make.
Given the rich sun ripened tomatoes and other Sicilian vegetables,
we've chosen for you to taste their superbly flavorful SICILIANA SAUCE. Buy it here at
$4.50 down from $9.00 |
 Spaghetti Umbria
by Fattoria Umbra
Another sauce that people seem to overlook, possibly because
of
the name is our Umbrian SPAGHETTI UMBRIA. Chef and owner
Sandro
Bianchi from the small farming community of Marsciano just south of
Perugia in Umbria invents zesty sauces of all kinds in a typical
Umbrian tradition. The olives, eggplant and capers make it ideal for
an Umbrian Spaghettata... or spaghetti feast. Ideal on any pasta, buy
it here down to $4.32 from $8.65
|
 Tarallini
by Pastificio Pozzo del Re
Another absolutely fabulous product that is at times
overlooked
is our southern Italian, or Pugliese to be exact, TARALLINI. These
crunchy "crackers" made from Pugliese durum wheat are very
substantial and are an ideal accompaniment to wine, cheese, or cold
cuts. Everybody tasting them says they are the best they've ever had.
Buy them here down to $4.10 from the original price of $8.70
|
 Intorchiate
by Pastificio Pozzo del Re
If you do a Google search for INTORCHIATE you'll bring up pages
with websites dedicated to this wonderful Pugliese specialty cracker
that features toasted almonds held in the twists of baked and sugar
crusted dough. This savory delicacy is ideal with cheese, wine, and
cold cuts. Buy it on our website at the greatly reduced price of $5.45
down from $10.90
|
 Pugliese extra virgin olive oil
by Franco Cuonzo
Keeping to the land of Puglia, we would like to feature the
delicious oil from the estate of Franco Cuonzo, where trees grow to be
over 2000 years old. This complex oil has a slight
aftertaste of
almonds and is ideal with all foods including pasta, meats, seafood,
vegetables, and more. Buy it here for $16.75 down from the regular
price of $33.50
|
 Red Renaissance Oil Bottle
by Ceramiche Lupo D'Agobio
From our hand painted ceramic stocks, we've chosen some
beautiful
pieces to let you have at greatly reduced prices.
This beautiful hand painted ceramic oil bottle from Gubbio in
Umbria is available reduced to $25 from $64. Buy it here now
|
 Angel Candlestick
by Ceramiche Di. Fra.
In typical Sicilian baroque decor, these angel candlestick
holders are ideal for warming up the dinner table for that classic
Italian meal. Made in Caltagirone, Sicily by the Di.Fra. factory,
these hand painted and hand molded angels are slashed to $20 from
their original price of $48.
|
 Blue Grapes Spoon Rest
by Ceramiche Gurreri
Also from Sicily, this cheerful spoonrest that is one of
those
absolutely necessary items for people that use the kitchen is marked down to $20 from $35.
|
And as usual, we would like to ask you to forward our
newsletter
or web site URL to any of your friends and relatives, and especially
any italophiles you know about. Thank you for continuing to order our
fabulous products for your personal use or as unforgettable gifts to
your friends and relatives!
