Ok, it’s not summer…. but here is so sunny and warm, it seems like I can smell summer already….
The best way to welcome the sun is preparing home made pesto…it sounds difficult but in truth is one of the easiest e most delicious thing you can prepare.
The good thing is that you can make a big amount of pesto and freeze it in little portions ( i use the yogurt container)
Ingredient:
fresh basil
1.5 oz parmesan cheese (not grated)
6 tsb extra virgin olive oil
pine nut
garlic
salt
SERVES 4
Procedures:
the tradition wants to make pesto using mortal and pestel (is that right in english?)
but let’s face the truth….we don’t have too much time ….
So I use an electric blender….it takes less then 1 minute to have homemade fresh pesto!!!
Put everything togheter…. and blend!
Don’t use too much garlic…actually I use only one tiny slice which I cut from the clove
There are many ways to eat pesto….today I went for pasta!
