Pesto alla Genovese – the delicious taste of basil and Grana Padano cheese in a traditional Italian paste

Pesto alla Genovese, also known as Genoese pesto, is a traditional Italian sauce with a creamy consistency and an unmistakable taste that will win over every lover of Mediterranean cuisine. The base is formed by a generous portion of fresh basil, which reaches 50.8%. Thanks to this, it can boast an authentic taste and aroma, which is complemented by original Italian Grana Padano cheese with a Protected Designation of Origin (P.D.O.). The overall harmony is completed by a combination of sunflower and extra virgin olive oil, along with cashew nuts, which give the pesto a uniquely delicate and creamy texture. Furthermore, it is made directly in Italy.

The composition of this green pesto is carefully crafted to offer the best possible taste experience. In addition, it is also a source of fibre and boasts a low sugar content. It goes without saying that the ingredients are free from palm oil and gluten. It is thus an ideal helper in the kitchen when you need to quickly prepare a tasty and high-quality meal.

The use of basil pesto is truly versatile. It is great as a base for quick pasta with basil pesto, but it also excellently complements gnocchi or risotto. It can also serve as inspiration for other recipes, for example, in salads, sandwiches, wraps, or as a base for delicious spreads or marinades. You can also use it to flavour meat or as a dip for vegetables.
