Rosemary Bites Go Green !

While we are all into supporting all effort in a sustaining eco-systems,  but that's the the go-green effort that we are referring here.  We are going green with the 'classic pesto'.   I think first of all,  there are a lot of meals or side dishes that celebrates the wholesome, authentic goodness of fresh ingredients, and we believe the one that definitely stands out is Pesto.

Contrary to popular believe,  the green colored pesto does not taste like raw vegetables,  but it's a well blend of earthly nutty flavors, pungent parmesan's kick, with the tangy splash of lemon juice and well balanced with the all-rounded extra-virgin olive oil.   Just like all our specialty sauce,  it's the many layering of flavors that will wake up those taste buds in your mouth.

Pesto is actually a very versatile building blocks in the kitchen. We love to dress the strings of spaghetti with green pesto,  we also love to add in fresh Mint leaves and create a new Mint Pesto just for the lamb or serve your brushetta with pesto for your next entertaining party,  and see your guests in awe !
Finally,  in a whole go-green spirit, good things are meant to be shared ! Here's the Pesto Recipes for you :)
