Let's start preparing our Fettuccine with Pistachio Pesto, cheese, zucchini, and Brazil nuts:
Fettuccine are a culinary excellence of our peninsula. This pasta is characterized by its rough and jagged surface and edge, typical of handmade production. The thickness is slightly less than that of Tagliatelle.
Fettuccine have a Bolognese origin. Specifically, the invention of this pasta is attributed to Master Zefirano, who cooked it for the first time in 1487 for the wedding of the daughter of the lord of Bologna. But today, the tradition of Fettuccine, with some variations, is present in all regional cuisines, from Veneto to Sicily. Here in Bronte, the recipe for Fettuccine has married Pistachio, giving rise to the creation of many fresh and inviting dishes.
Today we want to propose a delicious and original variation of the classic Fettuccine with Pistachio Pesto. A dish with a unique flavor that will surprise all diners. And for the realization of this recipe, we asked for a hand from our friend and food blogger Chiara of NordFoodOvestEst.
