Pesto & Trofie

Most things are better when you make them yourself, but the best basil is not available 12 months a year. Made in Liguria, the birthplace of pesto, the ingredients in this sauce will seem hauntingly familiar: Ligurian basil, extra virgin olive oil, pine nuts & pecorino. Although it is perfect with any cut of pasta, try it the traditional way with Rustichella Trofie, thin blanched green beans & halved baby red potatoes.
