Sacla' Vegan Basil Pesto 190g

We want everyone to enjoy Sacla’ Pesto, regardless of their dietary or lifestyle requirements. That’s why we make our free-from Pesto without any animal products. It’s dairy-free, gluten-free, wheat-free and suitable for coeliacs, vegetarians and vegans.

You can find plenty of vegan recipes on sacla.co.uk here. Some of our most popular vegan recipes use our Vegan Basil Pesto and Vegan Tomato Pesto, like Pesto Courgetti with Tomatoes & Chilli and Creamy Tomato Pesto Chickpeas.

We use high-quality cashew nuts in our Vegan Pesto recipe. Blended with all the other ingredients, they add a satisfying creaminess to the Pesto. We also use pine kernels, which are not technically nuts but seeds from pine trees, and when they are blended, they release natural oils, helping to emulsify the Pesto, giving it a smooth texture and nutty taste.

Basil is the star ingredient in our recipe. Over 50% of a 190g jar of Sacla’ Vegan Basil Pesto is Italian basil, giving it a bright, aromatic, fresh taste that defines our basil Pesto whether it's Classic Basil Pesto or Vegan Basil Pesto. 

Our Vegan Basil Filled Mushrooms make a stunning starter for a dinner party, or pop a couple onto a plate for a vegan, gluten-free main course. You can find the recipe here. Vegan Basil Pesto also pairs beautifully with plant proteins. Marinate tofu in Pesto before baking or grilling and toss with chickpeas, white beans or farro for a quick, protein-rich salad like Zesty Pea, Farro and Basil Pesto Salad.
