Preparation
This pesto stands out due to the use of professional binders for a creamy, stable texture, is low in allergens and scalable, and is ideal for convenience and retail due to its long shelf life.
Preparation of BIO Pesto Basilico for 10 kg (approx. 500 servings of 20 g each)
- Preparation: Weigh all ingredients and have them ready.
- Basil Processing: Mix BIO-Basilikum gerebelt (5.5 kg) and/or BIO-Basilikumpulver (quantity adjustment depending on desired intensity) in a large bowl with 3.5 kg of BIO-Sonnenblumen-KERNÖL and 0.5 kg of BIO-Olivenöl nativ extra until homogeneous.
- Emulsifying: Stir in 500 g of BIO-Kartoffelquellstärke kaltquellend/Instant as a binding agent and for a creamy, stable texture.
- Incorporate Nuts: Roughly chop 50 g of pine nuts (alternatively for allergen-free variant: BIO-Sonnenblumenkerne) and fold in.
- Seasoning: Stir in 100 g of BIO-Salz, unjodiert (Atlantik Meersalz) and 150 g of BIO-Zitronensaftkonzentrat. Optionally for freshness: add 10 g of BIO-Zitronenschalen gemahlen.
- Fine Processing: Process the mixture in an industrial cutter or mixer into a smooth paste. Depending on the desired mouthfeel, some of the nuts can be added after mixing.
- Preservation: Immediately fill the pesto into sterile jars or bags and seal airtight. For longer shelf life, pasteurize (10 minutes at 85°C in a water bath or continuous flow heater).
- Cool Storage: The finished pesto should be stored chilled (max. 7°C). Unopened, it can be kept for at least 6 months.
