Fresh basil pesto is so easy to make and one of the most versatile condiments in Italian cooking. It originated in the region of Liguria and when made fresh the salty flavour just dances on your tastebuds.
When making your own pesto at home, the trick is to use fresh basil leaves - either from your own garden, the farmers market or your neighbours!
Be warned, once you start blending the basil, your kitchen will be filled with the most delicious aroma and as soon as you combine the pine nuts and parmigiano you will not be able to resist a few scoops almost right away!

Pesto freezes well. We store it in ice cube trays, and use it all year, until next summer.

@vincenzosplate 3 года назад

Wow, thank you for the tip!

@alisonburgess345 3 года назад

I saw a great tip about freezing pesto - pour it flat onto a cookie tray between 2 sheets of baking paper (parchment), then cut the frozen slab into 4 and put them into a plastic freezer bag (still with their sheets of paper) then you can easily get as much as you want - sometimes you just want a little chip to put as a garnish onto some soup etc etc. It really works and is a better way to freeze it IMO! Either way, you're right - it freezes really well which is lucky cos I grew a heap of basil. I LOVE pesto!

This video made me get into farming my own little garden. Started with Genovese basil which I didn't know is so easy to grow here in the tropics, they grow like weeds and now I have an endless supply and pesticide free basil, they grow so fast I have more than I know what to do with the rest. With Italian parsley, I have little luck, many did not germinate and the handful that did is still at 4 inches tall like they are stunted for a month now. Tomato Roma, I have better luck, they are now flowering, hope they taste good.

But between cashews and almonds I prefer cashews over almonds. I think almonds have too strong of a flavor compared to cashews and this competes with the taste of the basil too much whereas with cashews I get more of the taste of the basil coming through.

Sundays are when I make anything that takes a lot of prep work or a long cook time to cook, like brasciole, or what we call in New Jersey "Sunday gravy" (tomato sauce that cooks for hours with pork, beef, sausages, etc.). To keep people from raiding the kitchen, you set the table up with fresh bread, dipping oils and nice vinegar, some cheeses and good salami, olives, fresh tomatoes, and of course, FRESH PESTO. Nothing you can buy in a jar is as good. Open a bottle (or three) of wine, and It's like summertime blossoming on your table.

You want to taste the pinioli Really enjoy your passion and energy in making these videos... and we can always learn more Respectfully

@@idontknowofausername6231 Why should he chill? Vegans are nuts (no pun intended) especially the ones who feel special and have to let everyone know that they used cashews nuts instead of parmesan.

I’ve always had this weird fantasy of opening a food truck called Pesto. So many sandwiches, pizza, pasta, meals can be topped with pesto. So many variations of pesto can be made. It’s such a beautiful compliment to most meals.

As always, Vincezo is amazing. I love how relaxed he is. Just made his tomatoe sauce today actually. When I lived in Greece, I would use Greek walnuts instead of pine nuts and Kefolatiri cheese (pecorino) and substitute half the basil for parsley. Both basil and parsley grow wonderfully in Greece. The colour is amazing and it's a great alternative and worth a try. It's is actually my go to pesto now but you can't beat the real deal, beautiful shown and demonstrated here by the lovely Vincenzo! Love your videos man. Thanks from the heart
