Finally someone who makes proper Pesto, most recipes online show it to be way too oily and runny, and what will happen when those Pestos take the heat from the noodles is that it will split. This Pestos consistancy looks perfect to put it in a bowl with some Fussili and pour a little bit of pasta water on top to bind it, then toss it and you will have the perfcet dish!

I love the 'Rocket science' exactitude of the Chef Jean-Pierre measuring system - you know what you want, measuring is less important than knowing what it looks like and what it tastes like. Cooking is as much an attitude as it is a feeling. Chef's JP's emotional approach to measuring is how I cook, how my mother cooked and how all the Italian Nono's I have been fortunate and privilege to meet, cook. Why mess with perfection?

I just discovered your pesto, cher Chef - happy that you do it like my Mom taught me 🥰! I love it with cashew nuts and/or peanuts (the ones from Upper Egypt are out of this world!!). When we get fresh basil I usually make a lot, put it in small glass jars, seal it with olive oil and put them in the freezer. They would keep for ... 17 years 🤣🤣 ... if only we wouldn't eat them before! Whatever one uses it with - it gives it that lil' extra touch, right? Thanks a lot again 🥰 also for the lovely and fun way to present it!! Yours, Eleonora PS It also makes great apéro : smear on a small cracker, sprinkle a bit of parmesan, a quarter of a cherry tomato in the middle et voilà - that's it!

Great vid, JP! Pesto is one of the greatest inventions ever. I've been growing forests of basil for years and making my own pesto. Difference is that I use pecorino romano, not parm, at the time of use instead of mixing it in. And it does freeze forever if I put the clear film over it before freezing. Most summers, I'll get 3 to 4 gallons and it lasts all year until the next season.

You make me laugh, Chef Jean-Pierre. I always enjoy watching your videos. Love this recipe, too. Pesto Sauce is a favorite of mine. I can definitely back you up in saying that it freezes very well. When it's in the freezer, it looses its color a little bit (kind of fades because of the frost); however, when you defrost it, it turns back into its vibrant green color again and the taste is superb.
