Fusilli al Verde is a traditional Italian first course, particularly popular in Liguria. It is pasta dressed with a pesto made from sage, garlic, walnut kernels, Parmesan cheese, and Pecorino cheese. This dish is characterized by an intense and aromatic flavor, thanks to the presence of sage and walnuts. It is ideal for lovers of strong flavors and for those looking for an alternative to the classic Genoese pesto.
Using a kitchen mixer, chop together the walnut kernels, peeled garlic rinsed and dried with paper towels, and the sage carefully washed
Pour the mixture into a bowl and add the cheeses and olive oil, mixing with a wooden spoon
Continue to stir everything, gradually adding the milk until you obtain a smooth cream
Meanwhile, boil the fusilli in salted water, drain them al dente, and place them in a serving bowl
Dress them with the prepared sauce and serve immediately hot
