The quality of Neri’s sweet and sour preserves starts with the raw ingredients. The vegetables used are carefully selected and come from controlled crops. Once harvested, they are processed fresh to preserve their proper texture and flavor. Onions, cucumbers, carrots, and peppers are prepared using methods that respect traditional recipes and flavor balance. The preserving liquid, made with wine vinegar and sugar, is carefully calibrated to achieve a harmonious sweet and sour result.

The entire process is designed to maintain the organoleptic profile of the ingredients, without using artificial preservatives or colorants. The vegetables are cooked briefly and precisely, just enough to keep them crisp and allow them to absorb the right amount of liquid. Every step, from cleaning to packaging, is carried out in controlled environments, using modern equipment and qualified staff.
Our sweet and sour products lend themselves to many culinary uses. They can be served on their own as appetizers, perhaps alongside a platter of cured meats and cheeses, or used to accompany main courses or cold salads. Their convenience makes them ideal even for quick and tasty preparations, perfect for enriching the table in just a few minutes. Sweet and sour giardiniera is one of the most versatile options. Its mix of crunchy and flavorful vegetables pairs perfectly with roasts, boiled meats, or grilled dishes.

For those who enjoy surprising with simplicity, sweet and sour products can be used creatively. You can prepare finger food skewers by alternating vegetables with pieces of cheese or cured meats. Another original idea is to use them as a main ingredient in savory pies or focaccia, or to enrich a cold rice salad with sweet and tangy crunchy notes. These preserves are also suitable for fusion-inspired dishes, such as pulled pork sandwiches served with sweet and sour onions or cucumbers.
