Organic pesto from Genoa

Pesto is Liguria’s best-known sauce. The most important ingredient is basil. The method of making pesto, a herb-rich cheese sauce, probably dates back to the Romans. According to another theory, pesto is a medieval variation of the also originally Roman garum. This makes pesto the first oil-based sauce.
