This aromatic Italian classic pairs pasta with uncooked pesto made from fresh basil, pine nuts, and Parmesan. Its vivid green color and fresh basil flavor make it a quick, bright meal.
Add the basil, pine nuts, garlic, Parmesan, and salt to a food processor. Gradually pour in the olive oil, pulsing briefly until a smooth sauce forms.
Cook the pasta in plenty of salted water until al dente. Reserve a ladleful of the cooking water before draining.
Transfer the drained pasta to a bowl off the heat and add the pesto. Loosen with some of the reserved pasta water if needed, toss, and serve immediately.
Pesto is not cooked; add it to the pasta after removing it from the heat to preserve its bright color and aroma. Contains gluten (wheat), milk (Parmesan), and tree nuts (pine nuts). A thin layer of olive oil over the pesto helps keep it from darkening in the refrigerator.
