And There you go ! Your homemade pesto is already ready :-)

Easy, fast and economical, right?

At least you know exactly what you're putting in your sauce!

All you have to do is enjoy it by putting it on pasta for example.

But you can also simply put it on toast as an aperitif.

Have you prepared too much? Well, freeze the pistou sauce in small portions, for example in an ice cube tray.

The pesto supports freezing perfectly.

The difference between pesto and pistou

Do you think that pesto and pistou are the same thing?

Think again ! These are indeed 2 separate recipes.

As we have just seen, the pesto is made with basil, olive oil and garlic.

There are no pine nuts, and cheese is not mandatory.

As for the pesto, it is made with basil, olive oil, garlic, cheese (parmesan or pecorino) and pine nuts.

Quick pesto recipe

If you know how to make pesto, Italian pesto is just as easy to make at home!

Just add 1-2 tablespoons of grated cheese (parmesan or pecorino) and a few pine nuts to the pistou recipe above.

In the spring, you can also make the pistou sauce with wild garlic.
