FocaccE golosE
Pesto
The union of two Ligurian excellences
The line “Le Golose” includes some specialties made with the same dough of the ancient Focaccia with cheese, but enriched with ingredients and condiments that make it an even more appetizing alternative.
Another variant of the ancient Focaccia with cheese that offers aromas and flavors which are typical of our territory, is the one enriched on top with tasty and fresh Genoese Pesto sauce, made with Genoese PDO Basil.
A typical condiment of our Region, this scented sauce goes perfectly with the delicacy of the stracchino cheese, gifting us with a new product of Ligurian tradition.
The Genoese Pesto sauce is hand- spread evenly all over the top of the the focaccia. This process takes place after cooking and after a phase of fast cooling, so that the colour and the aroma of this precious seasoning will remain unchanged.

The Stracchino cheese, the Genoese Pesto and the Flour are all Italian
The Stracchino cheese used to make our Focaccia with Cheese is produced with high quality Italian cows’ milk, which comes from selected farms only. A creamy cheese of delicate taste, 100% natural, and rich in milk enzymes, it is delivered fresh every day to our production site.
Our Pesto is 0 km away! In fact, it arrives fresh every day directly from a supplier nearby, who uses PDO Genoese Basil leaves only, and avoids using any additive or antioxidant.
A flour called Manitoba is traditionally used to make the Focaccia with cheese, for it’s a “strong” flour which helps the dough to keep its elasticity. Despite Manitoba flour being usually made with Canadian wheat, the one we use is 100% Italian. In fact, in way to shorten the distribution chain, our Supplier has made a careful selection of local wheats, and has therefore created a flour which is strong enough, but made with Italian wheat only.
