About Tallarin verde

Tallarin Verde, a vibrant and flavorful dish from Peruvian cuisine, blends Italian influences with local ingredients to create a unique pasta experience. Its creamy green sauce, the hallmark of this dish, is made from basil, spinach, fresh cheese, garlic, nuts (typically walnuts or pecans), and olive oil, with occasional additions like evaporated milk for richness. Tossed with spaghetti or fettuccine, it delivers a fragrant, herbaceous flavor. Nutritionally, the dish is rich in vitamins A and K from spinach and basil, healthy fats from nuts and olive oil, and protein from cheese. However, the sauce’s high calorie content, depending on cheese and oil proportions, may pose a concern for those watching fat intake. Often served with steak or grilled chicken, Tallarin Verde is a hearty, fusion-inspired meal that showcases the adaptability of Peruvian cuisine. For a lighter version, adjust the oil and cheese quantities without compromising flavor.
