Chef's Notes:

It is easy to make your own pesto when summer herbs are abundant. In a food processor or blender, combine 2 cups loosely packed fresh basil leaves, ¼ cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons pine nuts, 2 cloves garlic and ½ teaspoon salt; cover and process until smooth. Stir in ⅓ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
