Pesto:
A finely chopped blend of herbs and oil that is used as a sauce for pasta or a flavoring for anything from fish to soups. The best known is the pesto made from basil, oil, garlic, Parmesan cheese and pine nuts. For a change of pace, try blending a mixture of arugula, parsley, oil, garlic and some goat cheese. << Return to Cooking Dictionary Cheat Sheet
