👩‍🍳 Preparation

1️⃣ Boil the pasta in well-salted water (al dente).

2️⃣ In a bowl mix:

the pesto

the olive oil

1–2 tbsp of the hot pasta water
(creates a creamy sauce)

⚠️ Do not cook the pesto on the stove – the aroma of the colatura is better preserved this way.

Mix well until it forms a silky coating.

finely chopped parsley

a little diced lemon zest

optional – chili pepper
