How to Make Homemade Pesto | Jamie Oliver

By



Jamies takes us through the principals of making pesto and shares the wisdom passed onto him by Italian Nonnas he has met over the years. The traditional Genovese method uses garlic, basil, pine nut, olive oil and parmesan or pecorino but Jamie encourages us to do like the Italians and make it with what we have available. It’s guaranteed delicious.

    I sort of expect Jamie to put jam in his pesto now. Sweet and savory pesto .. Ew.

    Can you use this pesto for pasta. I'm looking for alternatives to use for pasta that are healthier besides the typical tomato sauce marinara sauce Alfredo sauce etc

    Whoa….so you can make pesto from mint leaves or parsley!!!! I'm learning and I like your video better. I think, especially for those who do not have blender , pounding all ingredients is not bad at all. Thanks for your idea. Very helpful.

    Love the way you explain things. I’m not a good cook, but the only thing I can cook, I learned how to do it from a science oriented cooking channel. I love that you explain how things work. It makes me want to try making it myself.

    Thanks for this Jamie!
    Made pesto for the first time and its delicious!! I toasted pine nuts with cashews and pumpkin seeds (good for your intestinal track). And into the blender I added all the ingredients, including a good measure of lemon and black pepper. (I made a honey jar’s worth)

    I had my pesto in a croissant with cheese, tomato and rocket!
    It was truly worth the effort, and more satisfying than shop bought. 🥰😋🥐🧀🍅🥬😋🥰

    Such an expensive and delicious sauce pesto is! I use it store-bought for my pastas but I wanted to make something fresh for a sandwich and boy is it pricey 😀

    I’ve followed JO from the very early days. He’s really getting into himself these days. Total respect and love those vege recipes.

    Hey Jamie, you’re not supposed to use the mortar and pestle to pound the ingredients of pesto. You’re likely to break them. The way to do it is to press the ingredients into a fine paste by rotating it against the mortar. you obviously have not seen it done the traditional way.please don’t teach folks how to do something you don’t know how to do

    Thanks for subscribing! genuinely love and respect Jamie Oliver. He seems like he's a man with a golden heart. I like the way you prepare food from your choice of ingredients, method of cooking, to presentation. I like the tools too. EVOO, oregano, EVOO, oregano, EVOO, oregano, So interesting, I had no idea it was possible to use different nuts and herbs, I can't wait to experiment now! Great video, love Jamie's enthusiasm.

    That’s true. People think they like just red or green, but there’s a whole variety of sub categories

    Spot on Jamie !! 1000%! Down here if the coast of Africa we have zero pine nuts just about but almonds and macadamias? No problem…be versatile be daring …it’s like making a salad dressing … think components/roles and which foods toda will play the nut/savoury/leafy/other role in my pesto today?

  31. @VisionofTomo

    Thats all well an good jamie as much as i love learning about this but buying these ingredients would cost people and arm and a leg. you can buy it in a jar for 1 pound.
