AEOLIAN PESTO – USES AND CONSUMPTION:

This pesto, as you can well understand from the same name, recalls and contains the flavors and the true essence of an archipelago very dear to Sicilians and beyond, that of the Aeolian Islands or also called Lipari Islands.

Located in the Tyrrhenian Sea, on the northern side of the Sicilian island, the archipelago of the Aeolian Islands is of volcanic origin, so much so that 2 of the 7 islands are still active volcanoes. Let’s talk about Stromboli and Vulcano, which with their eruptions allow us to participate in breathtaking natural events every year.

In these islands, rich in vegetation, we can find all the foods and main products of the Sicilian tradition. The tomato, the capers, the olives, the chilli pepper, the aromatic herbs and so on. For this reason, just to pay homage to this archipelago and all it offers, we decided to create a pesto/sauce that could recall the flavors and smells of these magnificent Sicilian islands, the Aeolian pesto.

Our Aeolian pesto is perfect for preparing tasty and simple first courses. The Aeolian pesto was created to pay homage to the products of our land and let you savor the true essence of Sicily and the Aeolian Islands.
