Make your own pesto with 49 delicious recipes and show off the versatility of these simple sauces with 67 pesto dishes. 

The classic pesto mixture of basil, garlic, olive oil, nuts, and Parmesan cheese is a popular favorite, but why stop at basil? Unlock the full potential of pesto by introducing into the mix other delicious herbs, including rosemary, mint, parsley, thyme, tarragon, and cilantro. This diverse collection of recipes for fresh pestos, pastes, and purées takes inspiration from cultures beyond Italy, with international delights such as:

  • Moroccan Chermoula
  • Brazilian Tempero Purée
  • Peanut-Cilantro Pesto


With simple instructions and inspirational photographs, these pesto recipes can be tailored to any taste and become a staple condiment in every household.

  • “Full of fun and relaxed — yet inspired — recipes, this book is a must have for pros and home cooks alike!” — Rich Rosendale, certified master chef, co-host of CBS’s Recipe Rehab, and co-owner of Roots 657 in Leesburg, VA
