Sofies Pastazauber

Sofies Pastazauber, the child-friendly pasta seasoning with tomato and herbs

Sofies Pastazauber turns simple pasta into a favourite meal for the whole family. Sofie developed the blend together with our kitchen team, and we mix and fill it in our workshop in Klingenberg am Main. The profile: a fruity opening of tomato flakes and roasted onions, a herby heart of basil, rosemary and lemon thyme, a mild, rounded finish with sweet paprika and a hint of Ceylon cinnamon. Mild and child-friendly, yet refined enough for grown-ups.

How to use

Scatter Sofies Pastazauber over spaghetti, penne, tagliatelle and all other kinds of pasta, or stir it into Mediterranean sauces, casseroles, vegetable pans and tomato sauces. You can cook it along or add it as a topping over the finished dish.

Good to know: The blend is deliberately mild and without heat so children can eat along. For more depth let it simmer in the sauce for a few minutes, as a fresh topping the aroma of the herbs stays livelier.

Easy tomato pasta in 4 steps

1. Cook linguine or your favourite pasta al dente according to the packet.
2. Sweat a chopped onion in olive oil and add a tin of passata.
3. Season the sauce with one or two teaspoons of Sofies Pastazauber and let it simmer for five minutes.

What's in it?

The fruity base is tomato flakes and roasted onions. The herby freshness comes from basil, rosemary, aniseed, lovage and lemon thyme. Sweet paprika and mild black pepper add seasoning, and a hint of Ceylon cinnamon bark rounds it all off in a child-friendly way.
