My version is based on Mario Batali's (fresh tomatoes only -- no sun-dried-- and no oregano), with some changes of my own. Instead of using sun-dried tomatoes, I add some chopped grape or other thin-skinned, flavorful tomato at the end (after blending the plum tomatoes). This gives the dish more texture, and I like the contrast of the pureed plums with the spicier grape tomatoes. I keep pesto in the freezer (minus the cheese) made with home-grown basil --- I am going to add in some fresh oregano and make this tomorrow night!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16750294.post-1157121314409594872006-09-01T07:35:00.000-07:002006-09-01T07:35:00.000-07:00I've never had pecorino cheese.I have a salad reci...I've never had pecorino cheese.<BR/>I have a salad recipe on my to do list that is all about walnuts, apple and pecorino. <BR/>Now I want to try it asap.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16750294.post-1157104054851572662006-09-01T02:47:00.000-07:002006-09-01T02:47:00.000-07:00Ana,I instantly love your pesto and pasta dish!
