🇮🇹 Vegetarian Pesto 🇮🇹 🇮🇹 Vegetarian Pesto 🇮🇹
Many people don’t know this but store bought pesto is actually not vegetarian.The reason is because of the Parmesan cheese in it. Original Parmesan cheeses is made with rennet, an enzyme obtained from the stomach lining of slaughtered calves.However, there are several companies who have made their mission to provide rennet-free cheese options. BelGioioso and Tillamook are some of them.Depending on where you live, you can find vegetarian Parmesan cheese available at local grocery stores or online. Just search up “rennet-free” or “ vegetarian” Parmesan cheese near me.You will notice that non of the nutty and bold flavor of the cheese is altered by the absence of rennet, so the pesto will taste just as rich.NOTES:*Make sure to use Parmesan Cheese label as “vegetarian” or with some indication of no animal rennet. If you aren’t sure, check out the company’s website.#CA2025 Veggie K -
