Sun Dried Tomato Pesto with DOP Cheese

Italian summers have a way of leaving their mark on the simplest ingredients. Sunlight turns ripe tomatoes into concentrated jewels of flavor, their sweetness deepened by time and warmth. In Polli’s Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto with DOP Cheese, those tomatoes are blended with the sharp character of pecorino romano DOP, fragrant basil, and smooth extra virgin olive oil, creating a tomato pesto sauce that tastes like it has been passed from one Italian kitchen to another for generations.

What Makes It Special

• Sun-dried tomatoes ripened under the Mediterranean sun
• Authentic pecorino romano DOP cheese for a rich, savory depth
• Fresh basil and extra virgin olive oil for balance and body
• Crafted in Italy with carefully selected, GMO-free ingredients
• No artificial preservatives—just honest flavor
  
  

How to Enjoy

Toss it through pasta and let it cling to every strand. Spread it on toasted bread for a quick, satisfying snack. Swirl it into soups, layer it in sandwiches, or add a spoonful to pizza for a burst of sun-soaked richness.

The Story Behind

In 1872, Fausto Polli began preserving vegetables in the Tuscan hills—not as a business venture, but as a way to hold onto the best of each season. Neighbors came to trade, families gathered around his jars, and soon the Polli name became a trusted presence in kitchens across Italy. More than 150 years later, Polli continues this tradition from four modern facilities, producing millions of jars each year. Every batch reflects the same care, patience, and respect for ingredients that began in that small Tuscan kitchen, ensuring each spoonful carries the unmistakable taste of Italy.
