Background

This is a recipe that chef Filippa made for us at her restaurant in Messina. Her daughter came up with the idea to wrap the king prawns in spaghetti, they loved how it tasted and have been making it ever since. Of course she lives right on the coast of Sicily and has the best of the fresh catch to cook everyday.

Video

Chef Filippa says in the video that Extra Virgin Olive Oil is the oil that can heat to the highest temperature without becoming toxic and that's why Papa Vince Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO) is perfect for this recipe. We checked out her claims with the OliveOil Times, you can read it here for yourself.

Simply the Best

Papa Vince EVOO is Simply the Best EVOO I’ve ever tasted. I love the flavored EVOO as well. The new Salad Dressing is so delicious, I could drink it. I’ve used it on meat and fish as well as salad greens. If you have not yet tried Papa Vince EVOO I strongly recommend you taste the perfection.

Love the salad dressing

After receiving the salad dressing, we use it more often than store bought dressings. It is so good you don't even notice it is low sodium. I already purchased a second bottle so we won't run out, especially with summer salad season approaching.

Outstanding Tomato Sauce!

Best tomato sauce ever. Straight from the vines of Sicily. The cherry tomatoes have a fresh, organic and sweet taste you can’t find with other tomato sauces. You can’t get more Italian than this. Even better than Rao’s and Michael’s of Brooklyn.
