Today my 5 year old daughter made Pesto sauce. We served with "al dente" cooked spaghetti.
Ingredients:
1 clove garlic
1 cup basil leaves
3 tablespoons pine nuts
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste
Preparation:
Smash the garlic with a pestle and mortar. Add the basil, continue smashing. Add the pine nuts, continue pounding. When it gets to a thick paste, add the olive oil slowly, and mix. It will turn into a paste. Add the Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper. Mix well. Taste, and adjust the salt. Add some more olive oil, if desired. Serve over cooked spaghetti.
