Homemade pesto recipe

Pesto is a really versatile sauce and not just good for pasta. You can use pesto to jazz up some simple steamed or roasted vegetables or add a spoonful into a bowl of soup to add an extra level of flavour. 

The combination of the aromatic herbs and the umami tanginess of parmesan cheese makes this a great sauce to always have on hand. 

You can easily buy ready made pesto in the shops but if you make your own, you will know exactly what quality of ingredients have been used especially olive oil.
