Testaroli al Pesto: Il Segreto Culinario tra Liguria e Toscana! 🇮🇹🍴

pine nuts

🥗Healthier: walnuts

💰Cheaper: sunflower seeds

Walnuts provide healthy fats and are more affordable than pine nuts.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grana padano

Grana padano is a less expensive cheese that can be used similarly.

In a bowl, pour the spelled flour and add cold water.

Using a whisk, mix vigorously to eliminate all lumps.

Add salt to the mixture.

Heat a non-stick pan and add a small piece of butter, letting it melt.

Pour a few ladles of the batter into the pan, ensuring the thickness reaches at least half a centimeter.

Cover the pan with a lid and cook for about 3 minutes.

Flip the testarolo and cook for another 3 minutes.

Repeat the cooking procedure for the second testarolo.

Once cooked, cut the Testaroli and plate them.

Dress generously with authentic Ligurian pesto.
