Sage Basil Pesto

For the sage basil pesto, puree all ingredients with about 5 tablespoons olive oil in a stand mixer. Only gradually add enough olive oil to make a fine paste.

Season the pesto with salt and pepper. The sage basil pesto goes well with fresh tomatoes to all types of pasta.

Preparation Tip:

It also tastes good with gnocchi, fish, or as a spicy spread on toasted bread. In a sealable container, covered with olive oil, the sage basil pesto keeps in the ice box for about 2 weeks.
