Martha Stewart's Pesto


Title: Martha Stewart's Pesto
Categories: Stewart4
Yield: 1 servings

3 c Basil leaves
3 tb Parmesano-Reggiano
2 tb Pinenuts
2 Garlic cloves; chopped
1 c Extra-virgin olive oil
Salt
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 1 1/2 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.
