This recipe is a real treat for the palate! Depending on the area where it is prepared, almond pesto changes its ingredients. To prepare it, you can’t miss olive oil, and you can enrich the pasta dish with cherry tomatoes and basil. However, we suggest not adding too much salt in order to taste at the most the sweetness and the natural flavour of Sicilian almonds.
