How it differs from similar foods
Unlike traditional green pesto, red pesto features sun-dried tomatoes as its primary ingredient, giving it a deeper, sweeter, and more concentrated tomato flavor. This also results in a richer, red-orange hue. The absence of pine nuts in many red pesto recipes also contributes to a different texture and taste profile.
