Ignite your senses with the "Calabrian Heat Collection," a box that celebrates the fiery passion of southern Italy. Each component is a testament to the iconic heat and flavor of Calabria, beginning with Tuttocalabria's Hot Pepper Honey bringing a sweet spice to your palate. Scalzo's Bomba di Calabria Hot Pepper Paste and Dinamite Hot Pepper Tapenade offer layers of fiery depth to transform any dish. The Arrabbiata seasoning is a quick way to add a Calabrian kick, while the crisp Partanna Castelvetrano Olives provide a cooling respite from the heat. Two unique jams from Italian Harvest—Hot Chile Pepper and Red Onion Calabrian—pair sweetness with a spicy zing, and Divina's Calabrian Chile Orange Spread marries citrus brightness with a warming glow, perfect for those who revel in the joy of spice.
