Il pesto pronto per condire. Il pesto alla genovese, pesto di basilico mi raccomando,è una salsa che va semplicemente aggiunta alla pasta e non saltata in padella. Ebbene sì: mi è capitato, e devo dire anche non così raramente come potreste pensare, di vederlo saltare in padella assieme alla pasta e uscire un disastro. Per cui ricordate: si appoggia semplicemente sulla pasta e poi si mescola delicatamente!
A jar of fresh Genoese pesto. Pesto is one of the most used pasta sauces in the world. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, it is the second most used sauce after tomato sauce. Since I live in Liguria, obviously, I always make it fresh at home. For reasons of time I never use a stone mortar (which I have at home, like almost all Ligurians) but, don't be shocked, a blender. It may not be made in the healthiest and most correct way but the result, I assure you, is exceptional all the same.
I have so many posts on this one about fresh Genoese pesto that I'm linking you to another nice article, written by Loris, on how to make this sauce.

Spaghetti with homemade Genoese pesto. Finally home after four months away. Finally the favorite dishes that I missed so much, especially during the last difficult month, are back, especially in the last difficult month. Even though I am in self-isolation and my parents manage to pass me food with some difficulty (they leave it outside the door to avoid contact), my favorite dishes are never missing. Today spaghetti with pesto. Mom prepared the sauce, I did the rest (how hard it is to put the water on, you will say…)!

Trofie with pesto, potatoes and green beans. Perhaps my favorite pasta. The excellent Genoese pesto with a sprinkling of grated cheese. I tasted this dish last night at Turin (review on TripAdvisor), in Sestri Levante and I have to say it wasn't bad at all. Generous portion and very good pesto. I recommend it if you are in the center of Sestri Levante, even in winter!

Pesto is obtained by crushing (mixing under pressure) basil with salt, pine nuts and garlic, all seasoned with parmesan, Fiore Sardo and extra virgin olive oil. It is therefore a raw sauce, or a compound in which the ingredients are mixed cold, not cooked. For this characteristic the ingredients do not lose their original organoleptic characteristics.
