Ligurian Pesto without Garlic from Niasca is made by the sweet combination of Ligurian Basil, high quality extra virgin olive oil, Grana Padano DOP cheese, Pecorino Romano DOP, salt and pine nuts.\nThe recipe comes from Emilia and Simona Mussini famous restaurateurs in Portofino. The pesto has an intense basil aroma that brings you to Liguria. Niasca pesto is produced without preservatives, colorants and artificial flavor and it is unpasteurized which allows the ingredients to retain all the nutritional values and aroma! \n\nEnjoy this pesto with Trofie, Linguine, Trenette, Caserecce, Penne or Fusilli pasta.\n\nIngredients: Extra virgin olive oil, Basil genovese, Grana Padano DOP, pine nuts, salt, Pecorino Romano.\n\nDirections: Do not heat the pesto in the saucepan because you will lose some of the best basil aroma. Simply heat up the pesto by pouring the pesto in a bowl and adding some starchy water from the pot of boiling pasta water.\n\nCompany History: \nNiasca Portofino project rediscovers the traditions of the region and its accompanying flavors. The result is an invitation to rediscover the true tastes of Liguria through the redevelopment of the countryside and places that were abandoned long ago, helping to re-invigorate the local economy.
