M\u00f6venpick Hotels & Resorts Jordan is inviting international guests and local residents to come savour the tastes and flavors of the Mediterranean this autumn with the launch of its latest global menu \u2013 \u2018Pesto and Pistou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Marking another gastronomic triumph for a brand synonymous with culinary excellence for more than 70 years, the expert chefs at M\u00f6venpick have perfected a new innovative range of pestos (Italian) and pistous (French) to create seven experimental dishes, available at M\u00f6venpick Hotels & Resorts Jordan throughout October 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 The culinary team at M\u00f6venpick Hotels & Resorts Jordan will lead the kitchen in preparing the pesto and pistou based dishes. These two classic European sauces are both based on the aromatic herb, basil, which is harvested in late summer. Savoury favourites will include seared Ahi tuna with olive and eggplant pesto and seafood soup with tarragon pistou. For dessert, a sweet treat with a real difference \u2013 Bundt cake with chocolate-mint pesto, served alongside a frothy M\u00f6venpick Espresso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 \u201cWe are excited to work with these luscious basil-based sauces, introducing them to guests in ways they have not likely experienced before,\u201d said Chef Marcel Riemer, Executive Chef at Movenpick Resort & Spa Dead Sea \u201cThe seasonality of using pesto and pistou is important to us, as basil is traditionally harvested in late summer and preserved into these rich, oil-based sauces that are full of colour, flavour, and healthy omega-3s \u2013 perfect for brightening up our cuisine, and our spirits, amid the cooling weather.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Igor Ruge Movenpick Resort & Spa Dead Sea Hotel manager added: \u201cWhile our guests and our local fans love to return for their favourite classic M\u00f6venpick dishes, we always seek to surprise and delight with seasonal offerings or special food-related events. We are certain that our Pesto & Pistou menu will excite the palates of even the most experimental foodies while providing a fitting send-off to summer with a tribute to the flavours that conjure up Mediterranean sun and sea.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Pesto and pistou are two versions of a flavourful sauce based on basil, olive oil, and cheese. Italian pesto, which originates in Genoa, the capital city of Liguria, Italy, is blended from garlic, basil, pine nuts, grated pecorino cheese (or sometimes parmesan) and olive oil while its French cousin, pistou, is a Proven\u00e7al cold sauce with similar ingredients, but without the pine nuts and with or without cheese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 M\u00f6venpick\u2019s versions add new surprising ingredients to the blend while preserving the essence of both Mediterranean specialty sauces to create seven pesto\/pistou-inspired dishes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
