Pesto is a delicious cold sauce that goes very well with any pasta dish or can even accompany salads, eat it on top of toasted bread…..<\/p>\n
It has a very fresh flavor thanks to its main ingredient: basil. The one with large edible leaves and not the one that is often used against mosquitoes in the pots of our balconies or gardens!!! In my opinion the mixture of this leaf of refreshing color and flavor together with the taste of pine nuts (or walnuts) turns this sauce into a delicacy with a delicate summer aroma !!! Although it is eaten all year round….<\/p>\n
The cheese commonly used is Parmesan because it is more common here, however pecorino is the right cheese according to the real recipe originating from Genoa. A good olive oil is always essential as it is necessary to use a lot of it to preserve it and to make quantity. This sauce in fact keeps very well for several weeks thanks to the olive oil and the garlic.<\/p>\n
I will give you the general ingredients but adding my own nuances to give you my own recipe…<\/p>\n
