Introduction: Making Spaghetti Al Pesto With Fresh Basil
Hello. We are back!!
We are university students in Korea, and we study English in groups. We want to improve our English, so please give us some feedback.
This is our 4th instructable: How to make basil pesto spaghetti.
Pesto is a sauce which consists of crushed garlic, basil, and European pine nuts blended with olive oil and Parmesan cheese.
In general, pasta al pesto is made with Fettuccine, but we used Spaghetti. Our professor grew basil in his house and brought it for us to harvest and eat. Moreover, we used almonds instead of European pine nuts because they were too expensive.
