“d’Autunno” soup

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Roman-era fighters, the famous gladiators of Rome, based their diet on mixes of grains and legumes. In fact, meat and fish were considered valuable foods that only the wealthy and Roman citizens could feed on. Gladiators were therefore given soups made from legumes and grains, which enabled them to keep their strength up for fights.
The word soup, on the other hand, comes from the medieval custom of using a wide slice of bread as a plate, on which the various dishes were placed. This, after it had soaked up all the flavors of the meal, was given to the servants, who would put it to cook in a pot along with water and vegetables, to create what we now call soups.

“d’Autunno” soup is prepared in vasocottura, a technique that allows all the flavors to remain inside the pot, ready to be released when it is opened.
Open, heat and add a drizzle of excellent Italian EVO oil raw: a quick, tasty lunch in full Italian style!

SHIPPING

We receive your order, prepare it and ship it in 24/36 hours.

We are aware that excellent products need excellent packaging and at the same time we cannot risk damaging in any way the precious Italian culinary jewels: for this reason our warehouse is equipped with temperature and lighting ideal for food preservation and the most delicate ones (cheeses, cold cuts and craft beers) are stored inside cold rooms. During shipping, on the other hand, each product is protected with the packaging most appropriate to its characteristics.

Cheeses and cured meats, which despite being aged require special care, travel accompanied by a special slow-release gel ice inside isothermal bags: in this way freshness is preserved until the goods arrive at your home.

For our craft beers, which are unpasteurized and therefore more sensitive to high temperatures than normal, we use a special isothermal bubble wrap, which can ensure that the accumulated cold is maintained for the shipping time while protecting the bottles from shocks.

To secure the precious bottles of Italian wine, we have equipped ourselves with special inflatable bags, designed solely for the purpose of immobilizing and protecting this product inside the box.

For jars containing a thousand Italian goodnesses, we use special protective bubble wrap liners.
