Martha stewart's pesto

1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3 cups Basil leaves
3 tablespoons Parmesano-Reggiano
2 tablespoons Pinenuts
2 Garlic cloves; chopped
1 cup Extra-virgin olive oil
Salt
Freshly-ground black pepper

Directions

Pulse basil leaves, cheese, pinenuts, and garlic cloves in a food processor until finely chopped. With the machine running, pour in olive oil in a thin, steady stream, blending until the mixture is well combined and emulsified. Pair pesto with a long, thin pasta such as fettuccine or spaghetti. Makes 2 cups (enough for 1½ pounds pasta). PESTO ICE CUBES: Preserve the taste of summer by freezing pesto in an ice-cube tray. Fill each cell with pesto, about 1 tablespoon, and freeze. Remove frozen cubes from tray, and store in a freezer bag. Thaw before using, and allow 1 to 2 pesto ice cubes for each serving of pasta.
