Bright Green Pesto with Gusto

Genoese Pesto is a bright, herbal sauce that enriches a wide array of Italian dishes. The finest versions begin with basil grown on the coastal terraces of Liguria, where mineral-rich soils and salty Tyrrhenian breezes give the leaves their delicate, unmistakable character. Young basil is ground raw with a wooden pestle in a marble mortar, then mixed with sweet Ligurian extra-virgin olive oil, Italian pine nuts, garlic, sea salt, Parmigiano Reggiano, and Pecorino to form the traditional, fragrant pesto alla Genovese. - AsNotedIn
