To make classic Pesto, you need a mortar. But today, Italians allow the use of more modern tools. For example, a blender or a chopper. The beauty of Pesto sauce is that you can replace any ingredient in it, but it will not become worse. For example, you can try taking red basil instead of green.
Step 1

Prepare the pesto sauce. Place the basil, garlic, grated parmesan, pine nuts and olive oil in a food processor. Grind all the ingredients into a paste to make homemade pesto. Finally, add a little salt and mix thoroughly.
