Every year, I used to eyeball the ingredients to make this butter, but I ended up with this recipe now. Maybe the authentic kind doesn't use lemon juice or butter, but I use them anyway because my family likes it.I make this butter in bulk whenever I harvest the basil in my home garden. I usually freeze it in an airtight container. I use this for cooking for a whole year until when I'm able to harvest my basil again. Recipe by chima@

Because the basil was abundant outside and the fall is approaching, it was time to make pesto and pasta for that matter.

Hard to remember recipe exactly. This is as close as it gets

Absolutely love this mayo on sandwiches and for dipping my fries in!

I was given basil leaves and wanted to make something with them.If you replace the walnuts with pine nuts in this recipe, you'll get classic pesto. Recipe by uzukaji.

I wanted to use up the basil pesto that I had made.If you like, you can add green pepper, onion or bacon before topping with cheese.I recommend you use homemade basil sauce, but store-bought sauce is also fine. Recipe by umemodoki

Recipe from our friendly neighbor Tim

Basil plants on their last leg with cold weather coming. Wanted to use it in something. Had some wings I needed to use also. How to combine the two?This recipe was born.Had a nice subtle basil flavor, not overpowering. I would of liked a lot more heat, but the wife didn't, so these I wouldn't call spicy. But they were flavorful. And pretty easy I might add.

Still got lots of sweet basil growing in the garden, so I'm making a batch of this Basil Walnut Pesto for all kinds of applications. Goes without saying on pasta, but it's also delicious whipped into butter and cream cheese, mixed with hummus or mayo, as a pizza spread, and also as a base for delicious salad dressing.You can use other nuts (pine nuts, obviously), but almonds, cashews, and pecans are also delicious.
