Red Tomato Pesto 180g | Mutti Pesto Rosso di Pomodoro

An intense, classic Italian taste experience based on 100% red Italian tomatoes and significantly less fat than traditional pesto. The iconic tomato specialist Mutti Parma redefines classic pesto with their innovative line Pesto di Pomodoro. Instead of an excess of sunflower oil and basil, sun-ripened red tomatoes form the absolute base of this pesto. This results in a rich, velvety texture with a deep, natural tomato flavour and a lower fat content.

The Pesto Rosso di Pomodoro is made with intensely red tomato flesh, refined with authentic Grana Padano BOB, basil and cashews for the ultimate Italian taste sensation. Also available in the variants Giallo (yellow tomatoes & Italian cheese), Arancione (orange tomatoes & Pecorino Romano) and Verde (green tomatoes & basil).

Culinary tip: Mix the Mutti Pesto Rosso directly into freshly drained, warm penne or rigatoni with a spoonful of cooking water. Irresistible as a base for an artisan pizza, on grilled bruschetta with mozzarella or as a rich flavour enhancer in a Mediterranean casserole!

Craft and Innovation from Mutti Parma

For over 120 years, the iconic family business Mutti from Parma has symbolised the very highest quality Italian tomatoes. Since its founding in 1899, Mutti has exclusively processed 100% Italian tomatoes that are harvested at the optimal ripeness from the fertile fields of the Emilia-Romagna region and Southern Italy. Thanks to close collaboration with local farmers and the application of strict quality standards, Mutti guarantees unparalleled freshness, intense red colour and a rich, natural sweetness without added sugars.

With the innovative Pesto di Pomodoro line, the Italian traditional brand bridges the gap between authentic craftsmanship and modern food trends. While traditional pesto is mainly made with sunflower oil and basil, Mutti replaces a large part of the oil with high-quality, sun-ripened tomatoes. The result is a culinary breakthrough: a creamy, full-bodied pesto with a surprisingly intense flavour, refined with protected designations of origin (PDO) such as Grana Padano and Pecorino Romano, but with a significantly lower fat content. This is how Mutti brings the rich gastronomy of Parma directly to your modern kitchen.
