Delicate yet rich, simple yet with multi-layered flavors - that's Pesto Genovese. A juicy green sauce from the heart of Italy composed of basil, olive oil, pine nuts, cheese and garlic.The dominant freshness of the basil harmonizes with the nutty notes of the pine nuts. The sharp and slightly spicy note of garlic combines with the creaminess of the cheese to create a rich flavor profile. Olive oil binds these flavors together, adding fruity notes, while salt enhances the individual character of each ingredient.
