Casa Forcello Mostarda di Pere – Candied Pear Mostarda, 4.9 oz

Casa Forcello Mostarda di Pere – Candied Pear Mostarda, 4.9 oz

Pronunciation: moh-STAR-dah  |  Origin: Lombardia, Italy

Hand-cut pieces of candied pears come alive with a hint of potent mustard extract. Mostarda is a traditional condiment from Mantova that masterfully balances sweetness and heat — a staple of northern Italian tables for centuries.

Paola Calciolari began her career as a pharmacist, but her true passion was food. She took a gamble, leaving her secure job to produce traditional condiments from Mantova using her grandmother’s recipes. She sources locally harvested fruit, slices and candies it in its own juices, then adds drops of a highly concentrated, spicy mustard extract — a labor-intensive process that results in an extraordinarily fresh, flavorful, and chunky mostarda unlike anything mass-produced.
