Pesto Rosso – what is it?

Fancy a little Italian lesson? “Rosso” means “red”. Our Pesto Rosso therefore owes its name to the ingredients that give it its colour – in this case, dried tomatoes and fruity tomato paste. Add a little sunflower oil, cashew nuts, tofu, basil, some garlic and a pinch of salt and you have a full-bodied, spicy flavour. But now back to the question of what pesto actually is! Pesto comes from Bella Italia and is an uncooked, pasty sauce that is usually served with pasta. The first traditional pesto was made as early as 1863 and probably originated from a Roman herb and cheese sauce – or is a medieval variation of a standard Roman spice. The best-known variety is probably “Pesto Genovese”, which contains pine nuts and Parmesan cheese in addition to basil. Green pesto also tastes excellent and is also available in our shop. It is called “Pesto Verde”, because verde = green. The aromatic sauce gets its colour from Italian basil. As the icing on the cake, cheese is usually added to the pesto pasta dishes. For the vegan version, we recommend our delicious, spicy yeast flakes.

Delicious recipes with pesto

Pesto and pasta go together like Max and Moritz. But anyone who thinks that pesto only comes into its own with spaghetti, tortellini, penne and the like is wrong! Have you ever eaten pesto with potatoes, refined your pizza or salad with it? Have you spread it on your bread or enjoyed it in lasagne or perhaps refined chicken dishes with it? If not, it's high time! There are countless ways to use this red wonder skilfully. Pesto Rosso is also used with salmon, in dips or even in yeast plait. What?! Yeast plait is a sweet pastry, you think. That's right, but the hearty yeast version is definitely worth a try. But we have even more ideas for you: Ever heard of a pesto flower? No, it doesn't grow in your neighbour's garden, but is a real party hit! First, make a dough from flour, yeast, water, a little salt and oil, divide it into three parts and roll out all the parts into circles. Then spread the first circle with our red (or green) pesto, place the second circle on top, spread pesto on it again and place the third circle on top. Now cut the “cake” into equal pieces and twist the individual pieces until you have a flower shape. You can also find the whole thing illustrated on the Internet. Simply delicious!
