Bell Pepper and Cacioricotta Pesto—perfect for tossing with pasta, and also excellent on sandwiches and in omelets with eggs and cheese.

Our Bell Pepper and Cacioricotta Pesto is a specialty that captures the authentic flavors of yesteryear. This recipe comes straight from our restaurant’s kitchen. 100% artisanal: only select ingredients rooted in tradition.

In every jar, you’ll find the enveloping sweetness of bell peppers balanced by the bold flavor of Apulian cacioricotta. This is a aged cheese traditionally made from a blend of goat’s and sheep’s milk, combining the production techniques of hard cheese (cacio) with those of ricotta. The result is a savory, slightly spicy, and rustic flavor that gives the pesto an unmistakable character and a unique creaminess.
