FAQS

How long will the Pesto Keep?

Place the leftover Pesto in an airtight container and store it in your refrigerator. The Pesto will last seven days. 

Can I freeze Pesto?

If you have a lot of Peso leftover, you can freeze it for later use. I’d recommend putting the Pesto in small jars and freezing them. To thaw Pesto, just set the jar in your refrigerator the night before you want to use it!
