From starter to dessert, our menu with èVita Residue-Free potatoes, good for the environment and people, for a romantic dinner!

On Valentine’s Day, love is not only in the air, but also in the kitchen! You can also be romantic without dining in expensive, refined restaurants, on the contrary, small everyday signs of affection often help create a very special connection.

However, when shopping, we should not ignore the environmental impact of all our purchases: this does not mean sacrificing any flavour, but caring about protecting the environment and our health too.

Our èVita Residue-Free yellow potatoes, grown exclusively in Italy from a 100% certified supply chain, are produced by combining varieties that are naturally tolerant to the main plant diseases and coded farming practices that help minimise any chemical treatments during growing through the use of very low-residue chemical molecules. This product balances protecting crops, environmental sustainability and people’s good health, and lets us come up with an eco-friendly menu that can help anyone fall in love.
