De Cecco Basil Sauce

Description

It is a simple but particularly tasty sauce, where the fresh flavor of Italian tomatoes is combined with the sweet and delicate aroma and taste of Genoese Basil DOP together with extra virgin olive oil. Obviously without flavorings. Once again the great Chef Heinz Beck, with his genius, has managed to create a masterpiece with a unique flavor. “An essential ingredient at the origin of the fame of Genoese pesto, Basilico Genovese DOP is grown along the coastal side of Liguria. The composition of essential oils of the basil grown here is different from all other areas of the world. The cultivation environment of Basilico Genovese DOP is the natural terrain located along the coastal side of Liguria, on this side of the Apennine watershed. The virtues of Basilico Genovese DOP are the fruit of the human factors that inhabit the territory, that is, of the history and traditional “native” cultivation techniques developed over the last century first in Genoa and then throughout Liguria. Speaking of “origin from the territory” for Basilico Genovese D.O.P. means linking it both to the environment of Liguria and to respect for traditional techniques: only this inseparable union gives rise to this inimitable product.” Source https://www.basilicogenovese.it/production-basilico-genovese/territorio-liguria-basilico-genovese/
