Pesto Sauce

Sauces and Salads

Every time I do this Pesto Sauce recipe I wonder why it takes me so long to do it again? It is very easy, quick and simple to make and the flavor is wonderful! I remember that when I had never tasted it, I imagined that the taste was strong because basil It’s a very aromatic herb, but it’s not strong, it’s sensational!

Ingredients:
1 cup (tea) of washed and dried basil leaves;
10 walnuts (I used pecans);
60g of parmesan cheese;
150 ml of olive oil;
2 garlic cloves;
black pepper and salt to taste.

basil

Just put all the ingredients in the processor, mixer or blender and turn it into a wonderful sauce, taste the salt, and add it at the end. So easy that it doesn’t even need to be cooked. Then cook the pasta and add the sauce on top. This amount of sauce serves a little more than half a packet of pasta (approximately 300g of raw pasta and serves up to 4 people).

Important:
– You can store this sauce in a clean jar for up to 1 month in the refrigerator, but it must not contain any water, as humidity causes it to spoil quickly. So wash and dry the leaves well before using in the recipe.
– The original recipe uses Pinoli (seeds that resemble almonds), but they are expensive and difficult to find, so you can use the nuts you like best.
