Thoughts on this?
>>21891068absolute trash perfected for the american palate
>>21891076>normal ingredientsLet me guess, you're a ketolard who thinks all oils are scary?
Soyuble corn fibre
>>21891068Bettergoods is the premium walmart brand as opposed to Great Value.Depending how you feel about walmart, you can proceed accordingly.
Pesto takes literally like 2 minutes to make in a food processor, why would you buy it jarred?
>>21891216to save 2 minutes
everything in that pic looks nasty but I would still tryhere is a quality pesto for normal people
>>21891206i am very clearly not an amerimutt
>>21891076>>21891228Neck yourself, obsessed faggot
>>21891216Because the ingredient cost for 200g of pesto is like 4x the price of the jar. Pine nuts are fucking expensive.
>>21891068Looks like a grift to exploit the pistachio craze
>>21891238You can use cashews, walnuts or pistachio
>>21891233why would i, since i'm not amerimutt?
>>21891214Ok but would pistachio pesto even be good? It's like $5 for that little babby jar.
>>21891250is it pesto if you dont use pine nuts
>>21891277Cooklet
>>21891277You can make pesto out of a lot of things including parsely, cilantro, mint, basically any green herb, smashed nut, oil, and cheese. >>21891068I had a jar of it a couple weeks ago, I used half on some ravioli, and the other half on some penne and chicken on separate days. Good flavor, very strong pistachio flavor but otherwise very nice. 9/10 rating from me because it was cheaper than the super premium brands, has mostly real ingredients, and tasted nice. If it were the same price as the other super premium brands, it'd be 7.5 or 8. I've found quite a lot of bettergoods stuff is actually pretty good; their tomato soup in the glass jar is superb. I did not like the green chile corn chowder however, it was far too sweet (from the corn) and the green chile was too floral, not roasted, and it just wasn't good for me. I have yet to try their ice cream because there was some bullshit like HFCS in it. Their pastas also have more unusual shapes and does feel/taste like they're higher quality, but overall its just dried pasta anyway.
>>21891076>No pine nutsDropped
>>21891277holy cooklet
>>21891289>any green herbNot just. I was actually surprised to see artichoke-and-lemon pesto in OP's pic. I'm from Naples. Lemon pesto is a local specialty. While artichoke isn't in any version I've seen, we do make lemon pesto from lemon skins (pith removed) just like that jar in the pic says and not a single green thing anywhere near it.
Jar pesto always has a sour vomitous taste.
>>21891248Ikr what the hell is going on?
dubai chocolate is probably very tasty
>>21891068Jarred pesto sucks. Pistachio pesto is probably fine made fresh.
>>21891076
>>21891068I love pestos made with different nuts than pine and different herbs than basil.But I prefer to make them myself. Pre-made pesto can never touch mine.
>>21891401Alright Giuseppe, you probably know what I meant but even if you didn't, your average idiot (especially american) will never know there is a and artichoke lemon pesto that only uses artichodes instead of a delicious herb.
>>21891463>t average idiot American
>>21891251>since i'm not amerimuttEven worse, probably Indian or some other ESL shade of brown.
>>21891475>shade of browni'm not amerimutt.
>>21891076Clearly it's Italian, as the label states.
>>21891277Pesto Genovese uses basil and pine nuts, but ‘pesto’ just means ‘crushed’ (it also gives us the word ‘pestle’ to go along with ‘mortar’).Technically as long as it’s ‘crushed’ in some way, anything can be ‘pesto’. So you could crush anchovy fillets, chilli flakes, olives, semi-dried tomatoes, garlic and capers and call it ‘pesto puttanesca’ and it would still be valid, although Neapolitans might chase you with pitchforks and torches if you did.
>>21891504So if I'm rizzing up a bae frfr and I'm crushed on her that's pesto?
>>2189107611/10 for making /ck/trannies seethe
>>21891474Exactly, not everyone is hip to your fish eye pasta, or artichoke "pesto", or braised dandelions.
I like bettergoods brand but the pistachio pesto was so gross I couldn't swallow it.
>>21891251>>21891497Obsessed faggot, neck yourself
>>21891401How does that lemon pesto compare to pesto made with lemon basil?
>>21891068Is it really that hard to mix olive oil, herbs, whatever else you want together yourself?
>>21892716see>>21891251
>>21892883Kill yourself, obsessed faggot
>>21891214I bought a can of the bettergoods california grown san marzano tomaters and it was pretty indistinguishable from canned whole san marzanos. Cost about twice as much as a can of roma but half as much as imported
>>21891076>product of italy>Americans did this! Rent fucking free. It must be insanely depressing being so utterly irrelevant on the world stage that the only interesting thing about you is how much you hate Americans.
>>21894374based and redpilled amerimutt
>>21892424>braised dandelionsThat's legitimately Italian. The other stuff not so much but sea urchin pasta is pretty big where I'm from : )>>21892770I've never made it with lemon basil and looking it up after I posted about it, looks like there are many herby variants of lemon pesto, most using a little basil and/or parsley. I saw one with mint. My family just make it with lemon and that's it. Great with pasta. Great with fish.>>21892873Honestly? It's the cleanup. If there were halfway decent industrial products, I wouldn't bother cooking at least some of the time but there aren't many so my wife and I usually do. >>21891474Why? He seemed perfectly well-informed. I was just clearing up a common misconception with my other post that there are some types of pesto that use no green herbs at all.
