Had Enough Tomato? Think Basil!
Saturday July 11, 2009
Tomatoes are (justly) one of the favorite summer vegetables, and pasta without an abundance of marinara (or pomarola) sauce wouldn't seem quite right now. But it is nice to do other things, and one of the most refreshing is Liguria's Pesto Sauce, made with fresh basil, olive oil, garlic, pine nuts, and cheese. It's a supremely pleasant addition to pasta, minestrone, and other things, for example boiled potatoes (which will be perfect at a cookout or picnic). Pesto sauce is easy to make, too!
