Hello, Pesto!



i love pesto. Yes, I am. 
I love the taste, I love the colour and I love to say it loudly. PESTO!!
On one of my previous post, i made spinach spaghetti in my desperate of trying to find basil leaves.
Truly it can be replaced by spinach any other similar leaves but i don't want to that.
So when i was accidentally stop by one of supermarket on my way home from office, I saw this lovely greens on the store refrigerator. 
Yes, it's basil leaves. 
So I need pine nuts to make pesto, and still I can't find it anywhere.
Since I'm desperately want to cook pesto. I decided to use any nuts that I found at home.
I still have this beans from Bali. It's called kacang Koro. I don't know what I can call this kind of beans in English. And I found this most simple home made pesto in Pinterest. From this website I also know what substitutes ingredients of basil leaves and pine nuts and how to store pesto for later use and what's good to accompany by pesto sauce.

Then here we go. Finally my first pesto sauce.

Enjoy cooking.


Cheers,
Dhidie
