Common Questions

What's a good jarred pasta sauce with no added sugar?
Our Terlato Kitchen Tomato Basil Sauce has no added sugar, so the only sweetness comes from the tomatoes themselves. Plenty of jarred sauces add sugar to round off tomato acidity, which makes the ingredient list the best place to compare brands. Ours is short: San Marzano tomatoes, fresh basil, sea salt, extra virgin olive oil, garlic and spices. Shoppers tell us that clean flavor and simple list are why it became their go-to jarred sauce.

Is there a keto friendly pasta sauce or marinara?
Yes. Our Terlato Kitchen Tomato Basil Sauce is keto friendly and paleo friendly. For low-carb eating, the thing to watch in jarred tomato sauce is sweeteners and starchy thickeners, because a sauce built only on tomatoes, oil and herbs keeps its carbs to what the tomatoes bring. Our fat comes from cold pressed Italian extra virgin olive oil. Some of our shoppers skip the pasta and spoon it over spaghetti squash, and we like it tossed with grilled vegetables.

Are San Marzano tomatoes worth it for tomato sauce?
For a simple tomato basil sauce they make a real difference, which is why San Marzanos are the base of our Terlato Kitchen Tomato Basil Sauce. They are a long plum tomato with thick flesh, few seeds and lower acidity than most round varieties, so they cook into a naturally thick, sweet-tasting sauce. They are traditionally grown in the volcanic soil of Campania near Mount Vesuvius. Ours are vine-ripened Italian San Marzanos from the Valle del Sarno. With only a handful of ingredients in the jar, the tomato carries the flavor, finished with the bright taste of fresh basil, and shoppers often describe the result as authentically Italian.

Is Terlato Kitchen Tomato Basil Sauce gluten free and non-GMO?
Our Tomato Basil Sauce contains no gluten, and we declare a non-GMO certification for it, with no GMO ingredients. We also make it all natural, in small batches from a small batch recipe.

Can I use Terlato Kitchen Tomato Basil Sauce as pizza sauce or marinara?
Yes. Our Tomato Basil Sauce is ready as it comes: simply simmer and serve. We toss it with pasta or grilled vegetables and use it in our favorite recipes. Tomatoes, garlic, olive oil and basil make it a classic marinara-style sauce, so it works for spaghetti, for dipping, or spread on pizza dough. For pizza, many cooks simmer it a few extra minutes to thicken it so the crust stays crisp.

Does Terlato Kitchen Tomato Basil Sauce need to be refrigerated, and how big is the jar?
Unopened jars of our Tomato Basil Sauce are shelf stable and can stay in the pantry. Once you open one, keep it in the refrigerator. Each jar holds 24 oz (680 g), the usual jarred-sauce size for about a pound of pasta.

Who makes Terlato Kitchen sauces?
Terlato Kitchen is the Terlato family, who also craft world-class wines. For years we made handcrafted, authentic sauces to share with friends and family alongside our wines. John Terlato wanted a sauce as fresh as homemade, and after sampling the top brands he perfected a recipe using small-batch techniques. Our first product was our Pomodoro Sauce, from an age-old family recipe. Our Tomato Basil Sauce is bottled for Terlato Kitchen in Bannockburn, Illinois.
