PESTO ROSSO - with dried tomatoes

This Pesto Rosso is made according to our own recipe from dried tomatoes, Grana Padano, cashew nuts and extra virgin olive oil — deliberately without garlic, so that the fruity tomato note remains clearly in the foreground.

The combination of the nutty crunch of the cashews and the salty melt of the Grana Padano cheese creates a full-bodied yet light texture. Stirred directly into hot pasta or served on toasted bread as bruschetta—both work perfectly without any additional ingredients.

It pairs well with a dry Vermentino from Sardinia or a light Barbera d'Asti, which complements the tomato acidity without overpowering it.
