Product Description

Paul searched for two years to find the right producer to craft a preservative-and-additive-free of spreads and pestos bearing the A.G. Ferrari Foods name. His search ended in the vegetable gardens of a small producer in the herb-scented Ligurian hills above Genova.

This natural pesto from coastal Liguria is made in the authentic Genovese style with fresh basil, olive oil, pine nuts and grated cheese. Toss with pasta, use as a crostini topping or as a marinade for chicken or fish.

Pesto alla Genovese is one of seven new sauces made in Liguria, exclusively for A.G. Ferrari Foods.

1.0 out of 5 stars Babu "Very Bad" To This Awful Tasting Pesto, June 16, 2011
By 
This review is from: Natural Basil Pesto from Genova (Pesto Genovese) (Misc.)
I purchased this terrible tasting "natural" pesto direct from A.G. Ferrari. Anybody who makes their own real Basil Pesto knows there are ONLY 4 ingredients in true Genovese Pesto: Pine Nuts, Basil, Olive Oil and Cheese (Parmigiano & Romano).

While it sure sounds like a romantic real deal in the hyped description here with the "This natural pesto from coastal Liguria is made in the authentic Genovese style with fresh basil, olive oil, pine nuts and grated cheese".

In FACT, the ingredients listed on the actual bottle also includes sunflower oil, sea salt, cashew nuts, garlic, wine vinegar, cornstarch and natural flavors. Oh, how unauthentic here!

Buyer Beware! This pesto tastes as close to the real basil pesto as Hobo wine is to Grand Cru.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favorite Pesto, November 16, 2003
This review is from: Natural Basil Pesto from Genova (Pesto Genovese) (Misc.)
Pesto Genovese is, without a doubt, my favorite pesto. My family and I eat it on capelli d'angeli at least once every week. We add a salad and a loaf of crusty Italian bread and the meal is simple but delicious beyond compare.

This brand of Pesto Genovese is one of my alltime favorites. So many times, Peste Genovese can be too oily, covering up the taste of the basil and the pine nuts. Not so with this pesto. Every ingredient seems to be perfectly balanced so you get the freshest, most flavorful Pesto Genovese available. The taste of the basil and the pine nuts is delicate, but so exquisite.

If you like Pesto Genovese or just want a change from more "traditional" tomato sauces, I urge you to give this pesto a try. I don't think you can go wrong.

This review is from: Natural Basil Pesto from Genova (Pesto Genovese) (Misc.)
It's not cheap, but it is a great tasting pesto. A worthwhile splurge every once in awhile. Clean taste of olive oil. My wife does not usually like pasta, but with this pesto, she wanted seconds.
