Coppola Pesto Genovese made with crushed Italian basil, garlic, extra virgin olive oil, pine nuts and cheese. This is the quintessential pesto recipe, and it originates from the Liguria region in northern Italy. This sauce is ideal to stir it through: pasta mozzarella omelette as a dressing to garnish chicken breasts before pan frying. We make our Pesto with 46% Italian basil, ensuring it is free from thickeners, preservatives, colorings, and artificial flavors. Coppola Pesto Genovese is gluten free certified. Packed in glass jars with BPA free lid. Good to know: The Italian word pesto means “to pound”, “to crush”, referring to the original method of preparation where the ingredients are “crushed” or ground in a marble mortar through a circular motion of a wooden pestle.
