Primo DOP, the Sicilian oil par excellence

Primo is the single-variety DOP extra virgin olive oil obtained with 100% Tonda Iblea olives, the native variety of the Monti Iblei. It is Frantoi Cutrera's flagship brand, the first to receive the award back in 2001, and since then it has never slipped from the podium of the main national and international competitions. An intense, robust and fragrant oil, suitable for hearty first courses, meats and legumes: it enhances grilled fish, soups and salads, bruschetta and Caprese salad.

Cerasuolo di Vittoria DOCG

Cherry red with violet reflections. On the nose, fruity notes with hints of blueberry, morello cherry and blackberry. The taste is full, soft and enveloping, with red-fruit notes and a long finish. Ideal with red meat, game and mature cheeses such as Ragusano DOP.
Grape variety: Nero d'Avola / Frappato — serving temperature: 16/18°

Yellowfin tuna in our oil

Our yellowfin tuna is hand-processed and preserved in Nocellara extra virgin olive oil, to guarantee the best preservation and enhance its flavor. As an antipasto or for first courses, sandwiches and salads: the preserving oil can be reused as a condiment.

The pistachio spread

Made with select pistachios, it has a velvety texture and an intense flavor. Ideal for spreading on bread and biscuits, as a filling for desserts or simply to enjoy with a spoon.

Only tomatoes, parsley and Sicilian sun

“Capuliatu” in Sicilian means “minced”. Sun-dried tomatoes, following the traditional recipe, are minced, dressed with oil and parsley and preserved. Excellent as an antipasto on bruschetta or crostini.

Caponata: all the goodness of Sicilian eggplant

Caponata is the Sicilian recipe par excellence, a mainstay of the island's food culture. There are many versions; we have chosen the most widespread one, frying the vegetables in our fine Frantoi Cutrera extra virgin olive oil. Excellent as an antipasto or as a side for fish or meat.

An intense paté of Nocellara olives

This pâté, prepared according to our grandparents' recipe, has the strong and decisive flavor of Nocellara olives, a native Sicilian variety, enhanced by our extra virgin olive oil obtained from the same variety. Excellent for antipasti, bruschetta, pizzas and sandwiches.

The Cherry Tomato in sauce

The same Cherry tomato from south-eastern Sicily, here concentrated in a sauce prepared according to the tradition of Sicilian summer preserves. Perfect on pasta, and just as good on pizza, side dishes, meat or fish.
