Crispino Sliced Eggplant Antipasto — Authentic Calabria, Preserved in Pure EVOO

Crispino Sliced Eggplant Antipasto is a true expression of Calabrian culinary heritage. Made entirely in Calabria, Italy, this antipasto captures the flavor, warmth, and rustic simplicity of Southern Italy’s gardens. Each slice of eggplant is tender, earthy, and marinated in premium extra virgin olive oil, balanced with a touch of wine vinegar and seasoned with oregano and basil—ingredients that have defined regional Calabrian cooking for centuries.

Prepared by Famiglia Crispino using their strict clean-label philosophy, this antipasto contains no citric acid, no sugar, no acidity correctors, and no preservatives. Only fresh, local vegetables sourced within 50 km of the Crispino home facility are used, honoring Calabria’s tradition of short-radius, sustainable production.

Taycte/MySapori is proud to bring this rare, traditionally crafted antipasto to the United States—offering American cooks and restaurants a genuine taste of Calabria that is nearly impossible to find outside Italy.

Why It Stands Out
  • Made in Calabria, Italy
  • Marinated in extra virgin olive oil
  • Balanced with wine vinegar, Calabrian oregano, and basil
  • No preservatives, no citric acid, no added sugar, no artificial additives
  • Vegan, naturally gluten-free, clean-label
  • Crafted from local Calabrian vegetables (within 50 km sourcing radius)
  • Traditional short-ingredient recipe rooted in regional heritage

This is exactly how antipasto eggplant is prepared in Southern Italian homes and trattorias.

Why This Product Is Rare in the U.S.

Most “Italian eggplant antipasto” sold in the U.S. is:

  • industrially produced outside Italy
  • preserved with citric acid or sugar
  • packed in seed oils rather than EVOO
  • flavored with artificial acidity correctors

Crispino’s version is the authentic Calabrian recipe, made with:

  • local eggplants
  • real wine vinegar
  • real extra virgin olive oil
  • real Calabrian herbs

Taycte/MySapori is among the only importers offering true Calabria-made antipasto directly to the American market.

How to Enjoy
  • Serve on antipasto boards with cheese, olives, and charcuterie
  • Layer into panini, focaccia, or grilled vegetable sandwiches
  • Add to pasta salads, grain bowls, or warm side dishes
  • Use as a ready-to-serve appetizer with crostini
  • Pair with grilled meats, roasted chicken, or seafood

Flavor profile: tender, earthy eggplant; aromatic Mediterranean herbs; soft acidity from wine vinegar; smooth, rich EVOO finish.
