PESTO GENOVESE (AUTHENTIC ITALIAN BASIL PESTO)

Pesto Genovese (Authentic Italian Basil Pesto) image

An authentic Genoese pesto. It's straight from Italy and you won't find a better recipe! This calls for a spoonful of pecorino cheese, but you could also use all Parmesan in a pinch. To store in fridge for up to 1 month: place pesto in a jar, cover with olive oil, and top with a lid.
