A Passion for Specialty Ingredients

A Passion for Specialty Ingredients Like many that trace their heritage back to the old country, a love of authentic food has been a tradition in the Cervasi family since the 1900 s. We can trace our family roots to Sicily, which is an underlying theme in the selection, quality and variety of products we offer. Though it has been a way of life for centuries, to talk about the ingredients in traditional Sicilian cooking is like reading a contemporary food guide for the trends in eating well today. Sicilian style is known for its bold, fresh flavors. And given the country s natural territory, climate and geographic proximity to so many other interesting food cultures, it has never really been necessary to complicate their recipes with anything other than high quality, simple ingredients. Therefore, more than a single category of food, Cervasi has always been a great ingredient company. Our offerings concentrate on the food styles we have known from our heritage, but celebrates the adaptation of these foods into contemporary culture. This love of simple, high quality food goes into our entire line, where we ve sourced and selected items that we d be proud to serve on our own table, like: imported Italian Pasta, Italian Olive Oils, Balsamic and Wine Vinegars, Quality Vegetables, Spices and Seasonings, Artisan and Aged cheeses, Olives and Antipasti items and more.

The artichoke has vitamin A, B1, B2 and C, and contains more minerals than any other vegetable or fruit. Cervasi artichoke hearts, the tender edible portions of the inner yellow leaves that encircle the cavity, come from young plants resulting in a crisp clean taste, but soft texture.
