    Hi Nick!
    I made this recipe today, and its the first time I actually cooked something.
    It turned out INCREDIBLE, and me and my family ate it so quickly and there was nothing left.
    I wanted to thank you, you make me want to cook, and today when I made the pasta, I was HAPPY to cook and work. Thank you for making me want to cook.
    You're amazing.
    Keep up the good work!

      😐 honestly speaking you need to grow up. if he or she didn’t know how to cook before and they decided upon themselves that they wanted to try and make something shouldn’t you feel a bit happy for them that they achieved something so great as cooking… its not nice to say that they are lazy.

      @zay white but how is that lazy though 🤔 and didn’t your comment mentioned something about needing to use a RUclips video to lean how to cook when you should already know how to? Its basically the same thing as if you don’t know how to do something you would search up on it eg. Lets say for instance that everyone knows how to make a circuit and you don’t know to to make one .. so you go to google or RUclips for help then you then tell or show everyone that you made a circuit but you used a RUclips tutorial to help you make it.. what would you do if someone says that that’s being lazy or that you’re stupid for using that to help you make it… if you didn’t understand or catch my point then let me spell it out….ITS STILL EFFING RUDE TO SAY THAT BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL TRYING THEIR BEST TO DO SOMETHING THAT IS NICE AKA COOKING and whatever you said about generation made no sense because even if someone is lazy to do something its not your problem and one more thing before I continue to waste time on this if someone doesn’t know how to do something and they turn to google safari RUclips etc its not being lazy and if they never knew how to cook before that’s ok its not lazy because if you didn’t know how to do something doesn’t mean you’re lazy. Now move along with your life and please at least try to learn something new and stop being rude and maybe you wont be apart of this “lazy generation” thank you and have a good night or day

    As an Italian and pesto lover, I wanna share some tips to make this an easier process: just put one small clove of raw garlic instead of frying it in the oil. Also, to preserve the color of the basil just add it FRESH as the very last step in your blender, while everything is already blended, and add a small splash of ice cold water. I would also personally use a bit less oil to prevent the emulsion from separating. And lastly, please do not heat up pesto:’D you made a beautiful green pesto and frying it off will not only change the color, but also cook the ingredients when the whole idea of pesto is for it to be raw! You can help the emulsion by adding a small ladle of pasta water into the blender right before mixing the pesto with the pasta, which has to be off heat for optimal result. Other than that your dish looked amazing and I can imagine how delicious it tastes! And Pesto is freaking cute

Don't cook your basil, use raw garlic, use a mortar and pestle, consider pecorino instead of parmigiano reggiano, and don't oil your pasta before mixing it with the sauce if you want the sauce to stick. Fresh basil + garlic ground together by hand makes a world of difference in flavor.

What I mean by such a great balance is that you have both things people can actually make at home and things that are really entertaining, but aren’t easy and the ingredients are hard to get.

    i'm italian from genoa, to make pesto you don't have to boil the basil, then you don't have to toast the pine nuts, you don't have to fry the garlic and to finish you don't have to mix the pesto and pasta in a pan on the fire.

      Second, NEVER, NEVER cook the pesto or else the olive oil will start cooking and frying everything else and that's not good,it breaks the meaning of that dish, 'pasta col pesto' is meant to be a spring/summer dish and there's no problem in serving it cold on the pasta, making not a hot dish but one with an explosion of flavors, where you can smell and taste the basil.

    For pine nuts the best tip I ever got was to do it in an oven. Put it on 160 C with the fan on lowest setting or off, then after like 10 minutes turn the oven off and crack the door. After that you can forget about em for a while and they'll have the most even super beautifull golden colour.
