<strong>pesto genovese<\/strong> authentic, the basil I recommend you use is the <strong>basil genovese DOP<\/strong>. This basil is typical of Liguria, particularly the areas of Genoa and Albenga, and is distinguished by its intense, fresh aroma and large, fleshy, bright green leaves. It is ideal for a pesto with an unmistakable flavour, thanks to its fragrance and delicate taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-separator uagb-block-fabf9ed0\"><div class=\"uagb-separator-spacing-wrapper\"><div class=\"wp-block-uagb-separator__inner\" style=\"--my-background-image:\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container uagb-block-38ff367e alignfull uagb-is-root-container\"><div class=\"uagb-container-inner-blocks-wrap\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container uagb-block-64f99e99\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-container uagb-block-e680196e alignfull uagb-is-root-container\"><div class=\"uagb-container-inner-blocks-wrap\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-ad3b1f7c\"><h5 class=\"uagb-heading-text\">History<\/h5><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Pesto alla Genovese is a symbol of Ligurian culinary tradition, a dish rooted in centuries of history. The original recipe is said to date back to the 16th century, when 'pesto' (from the Genoese verb 'pest\u00e2', meaning to pound) was prepared with the help of a marble mortar and a wooden pestle, a job that required patience and care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading3134_5eecf6-1b wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading3134_5eecf6-1b\">Initially, pesto was made with garlic, cheese, olive oil and local herbs, but it was the introduction of basil that gave it its distinctive touch. The perfect combination of fresh basil, pine nuts, extra virgin olive oil, garlic and local cheeses, such as Parmesan and pecorino, has made pesto a dish loved the world over. Its popularity has grown exponentially over the years to be recognised worldwide as one of the most iconic Italian condiments<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div

However, it can also be used in small quantities to enrich a tomato salad, giving it an aromatic touch, or spread on a bruschetta with diced ripe tomatoes and homemade bread for a simple but tasty appetiser. And its possibilities don't end there! Pesto can be used in a thousand other creative ways in the kitchen... some even use basil to make ice cream! <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/2hlH5xoAv8w\">Find out here...<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-separator uagb-block-41ab14ef wp-block-uagb-separator--icon\"><div class=\"uagb-separator-spacing-wrapper\"><div class=\"wp-block-uagb-separator__inner\" style=\"--my-background-image:\"><div class=\"wp-block-uagb-separator-element\"><svg xmlns=\"https:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 640 512\"><path d=\"M639.4 433.6c-8.374-20.37-31.75-30.12-52.12-21.62l-22.12 9.249l-38.75-101.1c47.87-34.1 64.87-100.2 34.5-152.7l-86.62-150.5c-7.999-13.87-24.1-19.75-39.1-13.62l-114.2 47.37L205.8 2.415C190.8-3.71 173.8 2.165 165.8 16.04L79.15 166.5C48.9 219 65.78 284.3 113.6 319.2l-38.75 101.9L52.78 411.9c-20.37-8.499-43.62 1.25-52.12 21.62c-1.75 4.124 .125 8.749 4.25 10.5l162.4 67.37c3.1 1.75 8.624-.125 10.37-4.249c8.374-20.37-1.25-43.87-21.62-52.37l-22.12-9.124l39.37-103.6c4.5 .4999 8.874 1.25 13.12 1.25c51.75 0 99.37-32.1 113.4-85.24l20.25-75.36l20.25 75.36c13.1 52.24 61.62 85.24 113.4 85.24c4.25 0 8.624-.7499 13.12-1.25l39.25 103.6l-22.12 9.124c-20.37 8.499-30.12 31.1-21.62 52.37c1.75 4.124 6.5 5.999 10.5 4.249l162.4-67.37C639.1 442.2 641.1 437.7 639.4 433.6zM275.9 162.1L163.8 115.6l36.5-63.37L294.8 91.4L275.9 162.1zM364.1 162.1l-18.87-70.74l94.49-39.12l36.5 63.37L364.1 162.1z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Enjoy your meal!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading3134_27941e-76 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading3134_27941e-76\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading3134_14a252-e6 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading3134_14a252-e6\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading3134_ce31d9-46 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading3134_ce31d9-46\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Enjoy your meal!<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3221,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"5 passaggi per un Pesto di Basilico super %%sep%% %%sitetitle%%","_seopress_titles_desc":"5 assaggi per un pesto di basilicoe autentico.
