NEW! DipNation Original Basil Pesto

Posted on: February 22nd, 2012 by admin No Comments

We’ve gone all saucy and added a pesto to our award winning ranges of dips.  Our fresh Original Basil Pesto is available now in farm shops, delis and garden centres across the UK.  Made with fragrant basil, authentic Parmesan, olive oil and fresh garlic our delicious pesto is full of both texture and flavour.  PERFECT for giving an Italian twist to any meal in seconds. 

Watch our recipe section for some delicious ideas on how to use this versatile sauce, but in the mean time try serving over steaming hot past or potato gnocchi, where the heat brings out the fabulous flavours of the basil, garlic and Parmesan.  Enjoy!
