A classic Calabrian pesto made from combining sheep’s milk Pecorino cheese & soft Ricotta with local sun dried tomatoes and creamy almonds.
This is a pesto that works wonderfully with shorter pastas, such as Trofie or Orecchiette. Add a little pasta water to the sauce and combine.
Or spread generously as a topping for bruschetta & crostini canapes.

Region
Calabria
The summery heat allows for very hot chillies to grow, contributing to the most famous product of the region, nduja. This is a spicy chilli and pork fat spread which is usually smeared over toasted Italian bread.
No longer associated with the old influences of the Mafiosa, Calabria has been become an authentic, vibrant and bustling region of Italy.
