Genova, the capital of Liguria, is famous for its fresh green pesto. The word Pesto comes from the verb Pestare in Italian which literally means to pound. This comes from the pounding of the ingredients – basil, pine nuts, garlic and parmesan – in a traditional marble mortar with a wooden pestle. In our Tonnarelli Genovese Pesto & Pancetta we feature a fresh pesto which we source from Italy which we pair with our golden Tonnarelli.

Shaved Parmesan completes the dish and in 7 minutes flat you will be eating a delicious Italian feast.
