Foriana sauce comes from the island of Ischia off the coast of Naples, where it is served on pasta as a Lenten dish. It makes a quick and exotic brushetta and adds a Moorish quality that is savory, sweet and spicy. The sauce is heated, then packed in sterilized jars, covered with olive oil and refrigerated. The oil acts as a barrier between the sauce and spoilers in the air in the fridge, and refrigeration retards the growth of spoilers. Foriana sauce lasts about 10 days.
