Pesto - Original Recipe

Exercise yourself



This is what an Italian chef describes as the only true pesto recipe:

1. Take a bunch of basil, a bushy one.
2. Basil leaves must be dry, not wet, before preparation or they will become dark.

Attenizone: Small leaves means more flavorous leaves. What's more, the best basil grows in the region of Liguria.


Savona, Liguria, Italia



2. You also need: garlic, pine nuts, and extra virgin olive oil.

3. Mix them all in a blender. Run the blender with frequent stops or the basil leaves will darken again.


P.S. Regularly do exercises J
