The Rizzo family has been producing preserves since 1949, jealously handing down the ancient recipes of grandfather Salvatore, founder of the company, from father to son. Love for one’s work, as well as an indisputable quality of the raw material, have become over the years the main feature of this company which bases its history in a fascinating and ancient family tradition.

Rizzo – Cannellini and Purgatory Beans
Small, white, and round bush bean historically planted and harvested by hand in the Lazio region of Italy. With delicate flavor and a thin skin, it is tasty when simply boiled with garlic, sage, and bay, then dressed with olive oil, salt, and pepper or cooked in a farmer’s soup. The Purgatory Bean has been designated by Slow Food as an outstandingly tasty, culturally important, and endangered variety in Italy, and is listed in their Ark of Taste as a way to invite everyone to take action to help protect them.
