Why choose Orominerva's L’altro pesto verde with truffle

It is an even more exclusive version of the classic pesto alla genovese, obtained by adding a little black truffle to L'altro pesto verde Orominerva: it is one of our latest delicacies and is called L'altro pesto verde al tartufo.

The organoleptic profile of this truffle pesto is very special and expresses the freshness and typical aromas of basil together with those of other natural ingredients. 

The recipe uses the excellent raw material of genovese basil PDO, a long-ripened cheese with vegetable rennet and our high-quality EVO oil, all seasoned with the unmistakable touch of the truffle.

The result is a truffle pesto that meets different taste requirements, innovative and different from the most common ones both in the choice of ingredients and in the way they are put together.

With L'altro pesto verde with truffle, tradition and experimentation work together to perfection to give rise to an evolved taste that is a pleasure to discover and share.

Truffle pesto for vegetarians too 

Our truffle basil pesto includes the usual attention to the selection of ingredients and how they are processed. We add the Orominerva imprint and, as in L'altro pesto verde, we choose not to use garlic and to use only vegetarian ingredients.

We use long-ripened cheese with vegetable rennet, which is therefore produced by extracting vegetable enzymes from thistle flowers.

The other green pesto with truffles is also made using long-ripened cheese with vegetable rennet, produced by extracting vegetable enzymes from thistle flowers.

The taste is delicate, lighter than classic pesto and easy to digest. The presence of the black summer truffle does not disturb, but enriches the already delicious flavour, giving it a more intense and never cloying tone.

Inviting in its aromas, the other green truffle pesto reveals its unique personality at every taste along with a pleasant creaminess, another indication of excellent goodness.

How to enjoy our truffle pesto

L'altro pesto verde with truffle can be used to season a variety of dishes, from the simplest to the most time-consuming.

First of all, it is an excellent ingredient for enriching hors d'oeuvres and creating original aperitifs; on a bruschetta, a tartine or a crouton it reveals its delicious qualities at its best.

It is also perfect as an alternative to the classic pesto for pasta; without garlic, the dish will be light and digestible, seasoned with the freshness of basil and the intense but delicate nuances of black truffle.
