Pesto Calabrese

Fruity, red and yellow peppers and the best virgin olive oil extra are the basic ingredients of this traditional pesto made in a family business in Italy. A combination of Pecorino, Parmesan and Ricotta cheese gives the pesto its exceptional creaminess and its subtle seasoning. A dash of hot pepper perfectly rounds off the pesto, giving it a subtle, pleasant spiciness.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions

FAQ about Pesto Calabrese

Why do European almonds sometimes taste bitter?

Almonds from Europe are very aromatic and usually contain a proportion of bitter kernels. This cannot be ruled out 100 per cent, as both bitter and sweet almonds grow on the same tree and cannot be visually distinguished from each other. At Rapunzel, we only accept a proportion of one percent bitter almonds in our quality assurance, which is absolutely harmless to health. For this purpose, the raw goods are tested for bitter seed content and prussic acid at goods receipt. Only if all parameters are in order, are the almonds released for sale or further processing. If you want 100 per cent sweet kernels, please choose Californian almonds. They are guaranteed bitter-free.
