How people cook with it
Pesto is a versatile sauce that can elevate a wide range of dishes. It is a staple in many kitchens for its ability to add instant flavor.
- Tossed with pasta
- Spread on sandwiches
- Drizzled over grilled vegetables
- Mixed into dips
To use this pesto, simply open the jar and stir. If you are making pasta, you can add a few spoonfuls directly to your hot, drained pasta and toss until evenly coated. For sandwiches, spread a thin layer on the bread before adding your fillings. It also works wonderfully as a finishing touch for roasted or grilled vegetables, or as a flavorful addition to marinara sauce. You can even mix it with cream cheese or Greek yogurt to create a quick and easy dip for crackers or crudités.

Who it is for

How to keep the rest
After opening, store any remaining pesto in an airtight container in the refrigerator. To help preserve its freshness and prevent oxidation, you can pour a thin layer of olive oil over the surface of the pesto before sealing the container. This will help maintain its vibrant color and flavor for longer.
