Footnotes

Definition of Pesto:
An uncooked sauce made with fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese and olive oil. The ingredients can either be crushed with mortar and pestle or finely chopped with a food processor. This classic, fresh tasting sauce originated in Genoa, Italy, and although used on a variety of dishes, it is a favorite with pasta.
