While you can buy a jar of pesto for 59p, it’s no surprise that those manufacturers are cutting corners big time. A recent Which? study identified bamboo fibres, potato flakes, sugar, and even water added to some supermarket pestos. Ouch!
The reason our sauces are so premium is simply because we don’t skimp on ingredients. We couldn’t forgive ourselves for making a Spanish pesto without Manchego, but because this cheese has a protected designation of origin, it’s inevitably expensive.
