Synopsis "Pesto"

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Pesto is a sauce originating in Genoa in the Liguria region of northern Italy. The name is the contracted past participle of pest, in reference to the sauce's crushed herbs and garlic. The ancient Romans ate a cheese spread called moretum which may sometimes have been made with basil. The herb likely originated in North Africa; however, it was first domesticated in India. Basil took the firmest root in the regions of Liguria, Italy and Provence, France. The Ligurians around Genoa took the dish and adapted it, using a combination of basil, crushed garlic, parsley, grated hard cheese, and pine nuts with a little olive oil to form pesto. In French Provence the dish evolved into the modern pistou, a combination of basil, parsley, crushed garlic, and grated cheese. However, pine nuts are not included. In 1944, The New York Times mentioned an imported canned pesto paste. In 1946, Sunset magazine published a pesto recipe by Angelo Pellegrini.
