Tomato comes from Southern and Central America, and arrived in Europe thanks to Hernan Cortés in 1540: as early as in 1544, there are documental evidences of its farming in Italy, in the territories of Emilia Romagna, Tuscany and Souther regions. At first it was thought to be poisonous, and used just for decorative purposes, but at last in the XVIIIth century tomatoes started to be eaten and its farming rose steeply. To prepare this sauce we use italian tomatoes and basil only.
