Costa dei Rosmarini, The Ligurian Pesto

LIGURIAN PESTO

The Ligurian Pesto is a worldwide famous delicious sauce. Its main ingredients are fresh Ligurian basil leaves, extra virgin olive oil, Grana cheese and pine nuts.

Costa Dei Rosmarini proposes a traditional Ligurian recipe, that differs from the competitors for the following features:

• Costa Dei Rosmarini uses fresh basil only, while our competitors frequently prefer freeze-dried basil.

• A high percentage of basil (43%).

• Since no pasteurization is used during the production process, the sauce keeps its taste totally intact. This procedure can be avoided because water and product acidity are wisely dosed.

• The Pesto Costa Dei Rosmarini has a preserve time above the average (24 months) with no need of preservatives or colourings.

This Pesto should not be cooked and its advisable to dilute it with a 20% hot pasta water.
