Pesto sauce hails from Genoa, Italy, and is rarely found in its authentic form outside of this city. Pesto cannot be used for cooking; it's a condiment for regional types of pasta like trofie or corzetti - though some use it on lasagne, too. In Genoa, cooking meats in pesto sauce is a misdemeanor and can get you in serious trouble.
