Pasta’s best friend and arguably one of the greatest Italian exports, pesto is
now a ubiquitous ingredient in everyday home cooking. Its heady combination
of basil, Grana Padano and Pecorino Romano cheeses, pine nuts, olive oil
and garlic make of this sauce one of the most appreciated and an interesting
ingredient for many dishes.
You can try it in so many ways: on a pasta or rice dish, with mashed potatoes,
added to soups for enriching their taste (especially yummy in tomato or
minestrone soup), added to mayonnaise and served on green salad leaves,
spread on fish fillets (such as cod, wrapped in greaseproof paper and oven
baked), mixed with ricotta cheese and used in place of traditional sauce for
a quick vegetarian lasagna dish, added to omelettes... You can invent, and
improvise, Pesto will always add a special touch to your recipes!
