Pesto

Pestou is a classic of Provençal cuisine, seducing lovers of southern cooking with its inimitable aroma of fresh basil. This delicious green sauce is as versatile as it is irresistible, whether used to enhance the famous Pestou soup or to sublimate a fresh pasta dish.

The secret of pestou lies in the freshness and quality of the ingredients used. Basil, the main ingredient, is picked when ripe, when its leaves are bursting with flavour. It is then combined with garlic, olive oil and vegetable oil. This delicious Pestou is made by L'oliverie des Baronnies, located in Entrechaux (20km from the Fabrique), which specialises in Provençal sauces !

Once all the ingredients have been carefully brought together, they are finely blended to create a smooth, creamy sauce. The result is a vibrant, fragrant condiment, ready to be enjoyed. Pestou is often served as an accompaniment to a traditional soup based on seasonal vegetables and white beans, creating a harmonious marriage of Mediterranean flavours. It is also a perfect companion for fresh pasta. Whether used as a main sauce or simply to enhance flavours, pestou brings a touch of freshness and authenticity to every bite.
