History
Pesto originated in Genoa, Italy. It is a sauce traditionally made with fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan or Pecorino cheese, and extra virgin olive oil. The word "pesto" comes from the Italian verb "pestare," which means to pound or crush, referring to the method of preparing the sauce by crushing the ingredients together.
