- Here's an idea!
- First, try the pasta with the green sauce only.
- Next, add the tomato sauce.
- This way you can enjoy two flavours in one dish!
- You can make the arugula sauce the day before!
- It keeps in the fridge.
- Enhance the nuttiness by toasting the walnuts!
- I referred to Brandy-san's "Pesto alla Genovese Made with Roasted Pine Nuts".
- For chilled genovese pasta, try
