Pesto

This is an Italian condiment, used for flavoring Pasta. You might want to try it out.

There are imported brands (from Italy, of course) that are tasty, but come in narrow bottles, that are hard to work with. I use the Roma brand, that comes in a wide bottle - in two flavors: pesto rojo, and pesto ligure. It is also cheaper.

I mix it with equal parts of ground beef, and cook it in the microwave for two minutes. Then I add the hot pasta, and some shredded cheese. Yum!

I prefer the small shells pasta (about 40 grams) that I cook in boiling water for six minutes (not seven minutes) that makes it a little crisp, and not so soft.
