A blender makes quick work of this traditional, tantalizing sauce of basil, garlic, Parmesan, and pine nuts.

I like lemon juice it puts a zing in it
Martha Stewart is so sexy!
Why Italian always force home made food as good as pro chef?
Brilliantly done! Straight to the point; done and ready serve
People can talk trash or haters can rant, but Martha Stewart is great! Her recipes are always straight forward, to the point, no b.s. She doesn't feel the need to embellish a classic recipe in order to put her stamp on it. She is my go to authority when i want to use, compare, or check a recipe.
Thanks 🐐
Perfect recipe and nicely done. Pro tips, here, Get a nice blender. Martha's Vitamix blender makes it very easy. If you have a low quality blender it might be a little tricky.
Mortar and pestle, not a blender which ''cooks'' everything……………difference is like night and day.
appreciate the brevity
I’d use a 1/3 cup of oil instead of half, it would help it be less runny
But how do you make pesto sauce for pasta. I'm looking for alternatives to use for pasta that are healthier besides the typical tomato sauce marinara sauce Alfredo sauce etc
You made purée, not pesto
It's so easy to make Pesto ❤
I love that the video is so short, thanks
I love that you get straight to the point and the video is short

마귀 나에게 넣기 취소
Thank you! I’m making this for my 5 year old daughter and this is gonna be the “family” recipe for many years.
Thanks Martha!
Girly just emptied half a bottle of olive oil into that thing
Sigh, why do people use so much garlic. Garlic is so powerful.
terrible. you made some kind of liquid basil salsa, but that's definitely not Italian pesto.
Thanks, Martha!!!
Ik she’d have a recipe for pesto
Perfection!
Mine came out a tad salty. I would go w less than 1/2 teaspoon. Maybe 1/4 tsp and add more if needed. Keep in mind parm is salty too. Otherwise delicious. I also added a little lemon lemon to taste. Thank u so much.
Should you not add the olive oil first so that the other ingredients blend more easily?
I've made this recipe several times; it's wonderful.
Obs. I toast the pine nuts before doing it.
