Different recipes, but same ingredients. Anyway in recipes like this you cannot have a single recipe because the basil taste changes, the garlics change, the oils change, the pine nuts change and the cheeses change. If you do the exactly same recipes with two plants of basil grown in 2 different place or in 2 different days, you'll have 2 different pesto. And this happens in all the traditional dishes. But you can't call "carbonara" something made with cream and ham.

When we were on holiday our Italian neighbor Gina made fresh pesto for us to take home. She put it in little plastic espresso cups, we later transferred from her freezer to the one in our caravan. She was quite some fierce (but very loving) senior lady. So she sent me out to buy the basil at the local vegetable and fruit market where is was so hot my sun glasses almost melted on my nose, and our son to find the pine nuts on the camping site. I vividly remember how black her hands became from cracking them. But we had fresh pesto made in Italy for over half a year. Ever since then I make pesto myself Gina's way coz pesto from the supermarket tastes like nothing compared to the fresh thing.

My favorite brand of pesto is H3 in LA California

If you are into pesto try the mortar and pestle method. When using a blender some of the flavoring directly goes into the oil and is lost. The big difference is that the mortar and pestle has a chlorophyll taste like a plant smell that has not especially anything to do with basil in particular. This note eludes me with a blender.

I make pesto Atleast twice a month… it’s the ultimate comfort food! The only disappointment for Basil here is, it only grows a few months of the year and the grocery store variety is ok, but it’s not great. I would LOVE to go to Genoa to see the Basil fields and greenhouses… I mean the aroma alone … wow. I’m drooling laying in bed at 10pm! 😋 🌿

The pesto looks amazing!!! so vibrant!!!

What a nice person. I loved his attitude.

I do like his accent. Very elegant, and almost an Italian equivalent of RP. 🥰

This is very interesting, as an Italian I've always wondered if non-Italians could hear the differences between Italian accents. Did you find his accent to be very different from hers? His accent is northern, while hers is southern, but she's covering it up, to sound more "standard". Usually Americans for example imitate Italians with a southern accent, so I guess that's the one they're more familiar with (possibly because almost every American with Italian descent comes from the south)

@@Elizabeth-xj6yl I personally can hear the difference! His in certain words/phrases sounds "harsher/strong" and reminds me a lot of the argentine/rioplatense accent in spanish ^-^

I'm so obsessed with pesto I could bathe in it! Pesto's gotta be one of my top three flavors in the world!

When you love so much something that you make a world championship about it, that's dedication

What an absolutely wonderful article. So genuine. I can almost taste the pesto. Preferred the mortar version! Yummy.

Pesto is such a comfort food...I remember spending my summers in Liguria as a child and eating tons of it!!
