Luciana’s Pesto Parodi, 2007 World Champion of Pesto al mortaio

Pesto Parodi is an e-commerce portal owned by Pesto Shop sas and was set up to market our handmade Genoese pesto.

Our mission is to produce unmistakably characteristic, high-quality pesto. As required by the traditional Genoese recipe, we only use 7 ingredients, nothing more and nothing other than these. We choose only the best-quality ingredients to produce the best possible Genoese pesto.

The magnificent seven are:
1) Genoese Basil D.O.P. (protected determination of origin) cultivated in the zone of Prà,
2) Ligurian Extra virgin Olive Oil D.O.P., 
3) Garlic from Vessalico, in Alta Valle Arroscia, inland from Albenga,
4) Italian Pine Nuts,
5) Parmesan Cheese from Reggio Emilia, matured for 24 months,
6) Sardinian sheep’s-milk cheese, matured for 12 months,
7) Italian Sea Salt.

 
The site offers food products which go well with pesto as well as other typical Ligurian gourmet products.

We strive to offer you specialities produced using traditional methods, chosen in keeping with the criteria “characteristic” and “high quality”.

The products available on our site, above all our Genoese Pesto, are difficult to find in the shops and even more so in large-scale distribution. With a few clicks, you can order them and have them delivered to your house.

We’d prefer, however, not to go on about the virtues of our products, knowing that the truth is in the tasting. And it is with the taste that we will try to win your trust and satisfy you.

Thank you for your visit.
