Pesto 1 article

Pesto is a concentrated herb sauce traditionally associated with basil, olive oil, nuts, garlic, and hard cheese, though commercial and regional formulas vary. Its everyday roles include pasta, sandwiches, roasted vegetables, grain bowls, and sauces. For pesto, the meaningful label questions are sodium, added sugar, fat content, serving size, and ingredient formulation; brand positioning matters less than the ingredients and amount actually used in a meal.
