Alane very kindly imported some pesto, made with basil from her garden, direct to us Wisconsin. The kids and I ate it tonight, on fettucini. I also tried to take a picture of the blue glow from the sun coming through the dishsoap, but the real thing looked cooler than the reproduction, isn't that usually the way?

And I forgot to tell you that I hadn't added Parmesan to it because it had been frozen....so, I hope you added some, or enjoyed it without!
I like to mix the pesto with some dairy, like reduced cream (Marcella Hazen says to ;->), so there was a big blop of ricotta mixed in, and we grated Asiago over the top - so plenty cheesey, even for us Wisconsin cheeseheads!
Ricotta....brilliant. I have pesto. I have ricotta (my husband misinterpreted a shopping list and got two large tubs). I have fresh tortellini. Dinner is done!
And thanks for making all that fabulous food. It was yummy! I'd join Deb's Supper Club if I lived near you.
