Production Techniques: To produce Cime di rapa Pesto, the freshly picked tops are used. After washing and removing the toughest stems and yellowed leaves, they are cooked in previously boiled water until they become tender. They are then drained, squeezed and left to cool. Once cold, almonds, chillies, oil, garlic and lemon juice are blended together to obtain a cream. The resulting product is finally placed in jars which, after being hermetically sealed, are placed in baskets for pasteurisation where they remain immersed for 15 minutes in water brought to a temperature of 102°C, until a temperature of 87°C is reached at the heart of the product itself.
