FAQs?

Do we roast chicken before adding it to the pasta?

Yes, the chicken is already cooked or roasted before tossing it in your pasta sauce. This makes the chicken crunchy and tasty and your pasta tastes more amazing.

Why do we soak the tomatoes in the cooking liquid?

Tomatoes are soaked in the liquid to absorb the moisture and then they get more pulpy and plump. So when they are diced and added to the sauce, they give a really good texture to the sauce.
