Pesto sauce

Wash and dry the basil leaves carefully. Pay attention not to break them, otherwise the leaves will oxidize and the sauce will result dark.

Put the ingredients in a blender or a mixer: Basil, garlic,pine nuts, cheese and mix them for 10/15 seconds.

With a silicone spatula , gather the mixure at the bottom. Add the oil and salt and continue mixing them for a few seconds until the sauce gets smooth and creamy.

If it results too thick, add a little bit of oil. And here it is!! Your pesto sauce is ready!!

You can store it in a glass jar (covered with a few tablespoons of oil) in the fridge for 4/5days. You can also freeze it in single-portion tubs and use it whenever you want! It’s perfect to combine with pasta.
