Favuzzi - Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto

Favuzzi's bright red pesto, made from our colourful sun-dried tomatoes, has a melt-in-the-mouth texture and the delicate flavour of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese and almonds.

A must in the Genoa region, pesto is used to season primi piatti such as gnocchi, minestrone alla Genovese, a whole vegetable soup flavoured with olive oil, risotto or, more commonly, pasta. Allow 360 g of pasta for our 180 g pesto size.

You can use Favuzzi Pesto to make tomato and mozzarella sandwiches, summer soups, zucchini or eggplant fritter dips, and pizza toppings.

On the limits of eastern Liguria, in Castelnuovo Magra, the de Luca Bellotto family has been producing this delicious Ligurian pesto for over twenty years. The family farm is one of the few in the world to grow, harvest and process basil at the same time. This continuous supply chain helps to ensure incomparable freshness.
