Tomato-rosemary sauce is the embodiment of Italian simplicity and flavor harmony. Its history roots back to Tuscan cuisine, where rosemary has long been valued for its spicy aroma. The rich taste of juicy tomatoes, complemented by the freshness of garlic and warmth of paprika, creates a rich and balanced composition. Rosemary adds a refined pine aftertaste to the sauce that pairs perfectly with meat dishes, especially aromatic kebabs. This sauce is not just an addition but a true highlight on the plate that enlivens the taste of meat and vegetables. It can be used as a marinade, added to pasta or served with hot appetizers. The simplicity of preparation makes it indispensable in home cooking, while its rich flavor makes it a favorite among Italian gastronomy enthusiasts.
