Italian Cuisine is a UNESCO World Heritage Site: a victory that reflects the sea and tradition.
It’s official: Italian cuisine is a UNESCO Intangible Heritage of Humanity .
It’s not just a prize for the recipes the whole world envies us, but a recognition of our know-how , our conviviality, the rituals passed down from generation to generation, and, above all, the excellence of our raw materials. Because there’s no great cuisine without great ingredients.
On this day of celebration for all of Italy, we at Ammaruni feel even more proud to be involved. UNESCO recognition celebrates our country’s cultural identity, and nothing captures Italy’s identity better than its sea.
True Made in Italy starts from the raw material
When we talk about “Italian Cuisine,” we often think of the chef plating up dishes or the grandmother rolling out the dough. But the real magic begins much earlier: it begins with respect for the land and the selection of products that embody the history of our places.
For this reason, Ammaruni ‘s choice to offer 100% Made in Italy frozen fish has never been just a commercial strategy, but a cultural vocation.
Our very name, Ammarùni , comes from the Sicilian dialect and refers to the prized red prawn: a word that evokes ancient nets, the skilled hands of fishermen, and the sunrise over the Mediterranean Sea. Bringing our products to your table means bringing a piece of that history, ensuring that the key ingredient in your dishes is authentic, Italian, and respectful of our maritime traditions.
Celebrating UNESCO at the table
Being a World Heritage Site means having the responsibility to preserve our identity. And how do we preserve Italian cuisine? By choosing quality.
Whether it’s our own Gambero Rosso or the carefully selected catch from the central Mediterranean, every Ammaruni product is a tribute to this heritage. Thanks to our high-quality freezing process, we stop time as soon as the fish is caught, allowing anyone, in Italy and around the world, to cook with the same freshness and flavor found in a Sicilian port.
Today we raise our glasses (and forks) to celebrate this historic milestone. Italian cuisine is a global treasure, and we are proud to offer you the best of our seas to honor it every day.
Ammaruni. A tradition of love.
