Wild Fennel Tomato Pesto

A vibrant, entirely Sicilian pesto combining aromatic wild fennel from the Monti Iblei region with sun-dried tomatoes, Avola almonds, and a touch of chilli for a lively, complex flavour. Naturally vegan and gluten free, it's as good as a dip as it is tossed through pasta. A whisper of chilli and oregano brings warmth and depth to the finished paste.

Description

Seggiano Wild Fennel Tomato Pesto is a ready-to-use pasta sauce, available at Saporia. Seggiano's Wild Fennel Tomato Pesto is a uniquely Sicilian creation, drawing on the naturally abundant wild fennel that grows across the Monti Iblei region of Ragusa in south-eastern Sicily. It is part of our pasta sauces collection, chosen for quality and flavour.

What Makes Wild Fennel Tomato Pesto Special?

A jar of genuinely good pasta sauce is a weeknight lifesaver, and Seggiano Wild Fennel Tomato Pesto is made the proper way, with ripe tomatoes and carefully balanced seasoning. The flavour tastes slow-cooked and homemade, without you having to stand over the stove for hours. The aromatic fennel leaf is combined with sun-dried tomatoes, ripe tomato salsa, and locally sourced Avola almonds to produce a pesto that is lively, fragrant, and rich with Mediterranean sunshine. A whisper of chilli and oregano brings warmth and depth to the finished paste. It is suitable for vegans and gluten free, making it an easy choice for a wide range of diets.

Serving Suggestions

Wild Fennel Tomato Pesto is ready when you are: heat, stir and serve over our artisan pasta for dinner in minutes. Try it spooned over roasted vegetables, layered into lasagne or used as a rich dipping sauce. The brand draws its producers from small family operations across Italy, with each recipe rooted firmly in regional tradition. This pesto is made entirely from Sicilian ingredients, and the result is a genuinely authentic flavour of the island rather than a loose interpretation of it.
