Preserved vegetables, notably the Artichokes, from the Agnoni estate.
In 2007, we met Viviana Agnoni and her family during a visit to their farm and production facility. We were immediately impressed by their dedication to preserving the seasonal vegetable harvest, particularly artichokes. Watching Nonna Nena hand-peel artichokes for their renowned preserves remains a cherished memory.
About the Producer
Located outside of Rome, Agnoni preserves traditional Italian methods of creating high-quality products. Founded in the 1960s by Nena and Neno Agnoni, the farm emphasizes respect for the land, genuine ingredients, and the taste of the past. Their hand-packed preserves, such as sun-dried tomatoes and Roman artichokes, offer a superior flavor compared to mass-produced alternatives. Agnoni's dedication to tradition and innovation ensures that every product, from extra virgin olive oil to vegetable creams, maintains the family's commitment to quality and heritage. Today, the company merges tradition with innovation, producing high-quality olive oil from Frantoio, Leccino, and Itrana olives. Agnoni also offers a variety of preserved vegetables and creams, continuing their legacy of excellence.
Lazio, home to Rome, the Eternal City, is a culinary playground rooted in simplicity. Think Pecorino Romano, guanciale, and street food gems like supplì. Roman cuisine transforms humble ingredients into iconic dishes like carbonara, cacio e pepe, and pizza al taglio. Meat plays a supporting role while fresh herbs, olive oil, and cheese shine. You’ll taste history and no-waste ingenuity in every bite.
Tradition and passion are at the heart of our family. Being able to showcase and share our family's products at Ditalia, which also have the same values and principles, is priceless.
