Pesto alla Genovese
Ok, I can't have my cook book without this. Read on for the authentic recipe that once tried, you'll never buy shop bought again! The recipe contains parmesan AND pecorino cheese. Many people think it contains just parmesan. Do not toast the pine nuts. By toasting them you remove the natural oil that helps make this sauce creamy. The type of pasta traditionally used with this sauce is trofie, which is a small pasta from the region itself. For best results use a pestle and mortar #mycookbook #italian #pesto #pasta #dinner #mainmeal
