Pesto al Tartufo

Bertolli Pesto al Tartufo is a delicious sauce prepared with Italian summer truffle, Italian cheese, pine nuts and extra virgin olive oil. These flavours come out well in marinades, dressings, as a spread on bread or in a delicious pasta dish.

Pesto comes from the word ‘pestare’ meaning pounding. This refers to the traditional way of grinding pesto with a mortar, or pestle. Nowadays, it can also be made with a food processor but if you still take the time to make it yourself, use a mortar for a more aromatic pesto.

Bertolli was founded in 1865 in Lucca, Tuscany. Francesco Bertolli and his wife Caterina opened a deli shop after which they started exporting Italian products to Italian migrants around the world. To this day, Bertolli aims to make all the good things from authentic, simple and delicious Italian cuisine available to everyone.
