Pesto Genovese Sashimi Cocktail Salad Pesto Genovese Sashimi Cocktail Salad
I don't like raw fish myself, but I had a sashimi cocktail salad with pesto in a restaurant.To my surprise, it was refreshing and I enjoyed it. So I tried to recreate the taste.The taste may vary depending on the genovese sauce you use. Season with the Krazy Salt to taste.I recommend garnishing with onion. Microwave the sliced onion and serve with the cocktail salad. The onion's sweetness goes really well with the sauce. Recipe by MeguBroaden cookpad.japan -
Basil Pesto Chicken Basil Pesto Chicken
Since I made plenty of basil pesto, I tried cooking chicken with it.When you are using a non-stick frying pan, please pan-fry the chicken without oil since a lot of fat comes out from it.Basil pesto contains olive oil, so I think it's better to use the least amount of oil as possible.

Cheese and Hanpen Sandwiches with Basil Pesto Cheese and Hanpen Sandwiches with Basil Pesto
The cheese slices are about the same size as a 1/4 slice of hanken, so I tried making sandwiches.I thought that colourful and fragrant basil sauce would go well with this, so I tried it.In Step 3, if you sandwich the cheese between piping hot slices of hanpen, the cheese will melt to just the right texture. Mind you don't burn yourself!If you can't use homemade basil pesto, store-bought is fine. Recipe by umemodoki cookpad.japan -
Pan-fried salmon with fresh tomato pesto Pan-fried salmon with fresh tomato pesto
This recipe takes its cue from the great Jacques Pepin, who I saw make something similar on TV this morning. His seemed like the perfect summer dish, so I took the idea and ran with it. I switched out the arctic char that he used for salmon, my preferred fish. And I zinged up the sauce with a bit of chili, garlic, and a fistful of basil. The end result was pretty fantastic, and made for a super-fast, light, but totally satisfying dish. Robert Gonzal -
Easy Wanut Basil Pesto Easy Wanut Basil Pesto
We make a lot of basil every year. Upon harvesting it, I make this sauce.I used to make this with pine nuts, but I wasn't able to buy them in time, so I used walnuts as a replacement. I gradually phased out the pine nuts and now only use walnuts.It's just as delicious, and cheaper, so now I make it with walnuts.Lightly roast the walnuts beforehand, taking care not to burn them. Let them cool.This can also be frozen. I put a little into a small container and froze batches.Thaw out the amount you plan to use, and use it as quickly as possible.After thawing be sure to put it back in the freezer.
