The Pesto Sauce of ALL Pesto Sauces
Historically, a pesto is made up of basil, garlic, pine nuts, a good extra virgin olive oil, and Parmigiano Reggiano. But, for me, I like to make the cheese optional and add in a squeeze of lemon giving the sauce an even brighter taste. The star of this recipe is basil so make sure you’re using GOOD quality, fresh basil. It should be bright green and have an intensely fresh scent. Sniff the basil like you do a flower (trust me - it’s worth it!) - if the smell is faint, move on to the next bunch.
