Belmorso Italian Gourmet – Basil Pesto

The Belmorso Basil Pesto is full of flavour, and has a unique taste, which makes it stand out from the rest.
  • Its high quality ingredients make it an exceptional pasta sauce, but also a spread, and a condiment for cooking.
  • The basil cultivated for this sauce grows high up on the hills of Liguria, a region in the Northwest of Italy known for its perfect growing climate.
  • This sauce is ideal with Trofie pasta; trofie’s shape in fact allows the sauce to thoroughly stick to the pasta.
    Available in 190g and 340g Glass Jar

Heat the pesto slowly in a saucepan, mix it with pasta, and serve. Also great as:

  1. A sauce for meat or fish dishes.
  2. A spread on tarallini, bruschetta or crostini.
  3. A spread on crackers and breads.
  4. A dip for party finger food.
  5. A sandwich filler.
  6. An ingredient in salad dressings, stews and soups.
  7. It is fantastic with scrambled eggs.
  8. It’s delicious if mixed with some fresh ricotta cheese, and used to stuff ravioli or vol-au-vents.
