Cooking pasta can be very easy, or very complicated. One of the key delicacies of pasta is the sauce that coats the paste and melts on the tongue. We often find Italian-style sauces consisting of various kinds of ingredients that are put together and cooked.
This time we serve spaghetti with different sauce variants, Pesto sauce. This Pesto sauce does not go through the cooking process with fire so that the nutrients contained in the spices and other types of vegetables are more awake and not damaged through the heating process.
Pesto is a sauce that comes from northern Italy, and is a blend of the taste of crispy garlic, basil leaves and pine nut texture which is crunchy combined with olive oil and Parmesan cheese. All ingredients are put together and chopped in a mortar or food processor.
