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