Trapani-style Pesto is produced from a base of chopped tomatoes, dried tomatoes and almonds. These ingredients are cold ground in order to preserve the natural characteristics and aromas present in fresh products. We then add Frantoi Cutrera extra virgin olive oil to the recipe. This pesto has a red colour, aromatic notes of dried tomato, balanced by the fresh flavor of basil, a dense and creamy consistency alternating with the crunchiness of Sicilian almonds.

Tomato is a food rich in nutrients, especially potassium, phosphorus, vitamin C, vitamin K and folate. It has an antioxidant action thanks to the presence of lycopene, helps reduce cellular aging and blood pressure, stimulates diuresis and digestion. Almonds, on the other hand, are considered a super food: they are in fact an excellent source of vegetable proteins, B vitamins, vitamin E, unsaturated fats (the so-called "good fats"), fiber and mineral salts. They also represent one of the richest natural sources of calcium, magnesium and phosphorus, the very same elements that form bones, contributing to their well-being.

Our Segreti di Sicilia line of preserves was born from the love for this land and its traditions, from the scents of our childhood, from our grandmother's secrets and from the rediscovery of an authentic and genuine past. Each product speaks of a specific territory, of a biodiversity that the world envies us. We choose each of them from our own crops or from our network, small and local productions and farmers who work the land with the same passion and respect as in the past. These genuine products are then transformed in our modern canning plant with the help of latest generation machinery. We use innovative cooking and preservation techniques that guarantee absolute respect for the original recipe and, at the same time, the preservation of all the organoleptic characteristics of the fresh product and its main nutritional aspects. The absence of preservatives and colorings allows you to taste a genuine product.
