Pesto: Italy’s Most Versatile Sauce – Reinvented by Tigullio

 

When most people hear “pesto,” they picture pasta — spaghetti, fusilli, maybe penne. But in Italy, pesto alla Genovese is just the beginning. Across Liguria and beyond, pesto is used in all sorts of everyday meals, adding bold flavour in just a spoonful.

At Italia Solutions, we stock the Tigullio pesto range — made in Liguria with premium ingredients like black truffle, pistachio, radicchio, and speck. These gourmet blends go way beyond the usual basil-and-garlic combo. Ready to upgrade your cooking?

Here are seven Italian-inspired ways to use Tigullio pesto — no pasta required.

 


7 Delicious Ways to Use Tigullio Pesto (That Aren’t Pasta)

 

1. Spread on Crostini or Bruschetta

Perfect as an aperitivo or starter. Try Pomodori Secchi e Pistacchi or Olive e Capperi on toasted sourdough or grilled ciabatta.

 

2. Tossed with Roasted Vegetables

Add a spoonful of Cacio e Pepe pesto to roasted potatoes, courgettes or aubergines for an instant flavour boost.

 

3. Swirled into Scrambled Eggs or Frittata

Brighten up brunch with Ricotta e Pistacchio pesto. It adds a creamy, herby twist to eggs or frittata.

 

4. Dolloped onto Grilled Meat or Fish

Try Radicchio e Speck with steak or grilled chicken. Or finish baked salmon with a spoonful of Genovese Senza Aglio for a garlic-free, fresh basil note.

 

5. Layered in Sandwiches and Toasties

Upgrade your sandwich game with Ricotta, Tartufo e Pepe Nero. It’s earthy, indulgent and makes even a cheese toastie feel gourmet.

 

6. Stirred into Soups and Stews

A teaspoon of pesto goes a long way in lentil soup, minestrone or bean stews. Try Carciofi e Noci to add depth and savoury complexity.

 

7. Mixed into Risottos or Grains

Once your risotto or farro is cooked, stir in a spoonful of your favourite Tigullio pesto for a luxurious finish — without the effort.

 


Why Italians Love Tigullio Pesto

Tigullio is one of Italy’s most trusted names in pesto — and for good reason. These sauces are made in Liguria, using regional ingredients and creative blends that go far beyond basic green pesto.

From truffle to radicchio, walnut to sun-dried tomato, every jar is a taste of real Italian home cooking.

Whether you're hosting friends or just jazzing up leftovers, Tigullio helps you cook like an Italian — fast.
