Basil Pesto Classico

Classic Basil Pesto? Yes, please! We couldn't believe how rich, aromatic and earthy this basil pesto turned out when we used our Organic Arbosano Extra Virgin Olive Oil for this mouth-watering pasta sauce. It turned out so good, we even grabbed some of our favorite artisan bread to get every last bit off our plates! 

Ingredients:

• 1 cup of basil leaves, loosely packed
• ¼ cup of pine nuts
• ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 clove of garlic
• A pinch of salt
• ½ cup Organic Arbosano Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Directions:

In a food processor add all ingredients except the Organic Arbosano Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Pulse a few times to coarsely chop. Turn the food processor on low and slowly add the olive oil until mixture becomes a paste. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt!
