Pesto with Pistachios | Kitchen on the Cliff with Giovanna Bellia LaMarca

Pesto di Pistacchi or Pesto di Bronte is simple and satiating, quite similar to the more well-known Pesto alla Genovese but with one key difference: the pistachios are the most prominent ingredient. A refreshing, quick, rich summer sauce for gnocchi, as we did in today’s video, pasta, or even spread on crostini!
