- Fresh basil pesto led the revolution in authentic Italian cooking in America. It wasn't red and it didn't cook for hrs on the stove. In fact, it was green! And you didn't have to cook it at all! The fragrant green leaves, crushed with garlic and pine nuts, when tossed with freshly cooked pasta, creates a dish of unforgettale aroma and taste. Aromatic pesto can be used as a spread for panini with equally memorable effect. The following recipe produces a dense mix specifically for panini; to use with pasta, just add in a little more extra virgin olive oil and thin with some warm pasta cooking water.
