Thank goodness a certain basil lovin' neighbor had the foresight to plant a pesto plantation at the community garden last year. Without this visionary gardener's effort, enthusiasm, and generosity we would now find ourselves pestoless. It would indeed be a desperate situation if, at this point, we were faced with rationing a single unit of this green, garlicky delicacy until next season's basil harvest. As it is, our supply is still so plentiful that should an impromptu pesto party invitation be issued we would be in very good shape to bring a pestolicious, pestoplentiful dish to pass.
This gives us another reason to celebrate the joys of freezing as a way to keep fresh food accessible. That pesto looks positively delicious. Any interest in trading a pesto pouch for a fresh peach one?
ReplyDeleteWe've run out of freezer pesto already - and duly noted that this year I'll have to plant double the basil to increase our harvest....
