Summer Pesto

As summer approaches, many of us are looking for fresh and delicious ways to liven up our meals. One easy and versatile ingredient that can add a burst of flavour to any dish is pesto. Atlante, a supplier of high-quality Italian products, is excited to introduce a new Summer Pesto, now available at Sainsbury's stores across the UK.

Pesto is a sauce originating from Genoa, Italy. It is traditionally made by blending together fresh basil leaves, garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil. The ingredients are typically combined in a mortar and pestle, although modern versions often use a food processor or blender for convenience.

What makes Atlante's Summer Pesto so special? For starters, it's made with the freshest ingredients, including red peppers, ricotta cheese, sunflower oil, pecorino romano cheese, and grana padano cheese. A twist on the classic combination of flavours.

Atlante's Summer Pesto is incredibly versatile and can be used in a variety of ways. Toss it with cooked pasta for a quick and easy weeknight meal, spread it on a pizza crust for a gourmet twist, or use it as a marinade for grilled chicken or fish. The possibilities are endless, and the flavour is always top-notch.

At Atlante, quality is of the utmost importance, we take great care in sourcing the freshest and most flavourful ingredients, and the Summer Pesto is no exception. This year's pesto was first trialled in the Spring-Summer of  2022 and it flew off the shelves

If you're looking to add some zing to your summer meals, be sure to pick up a jar of Atlante's Summer Pesto at Sainsbury's. You won't be disappointed!
