I'm not a big pesto qua pesto fan -- not even I like olive oil that much. But as we all know, fresh basil just doesn't keep in the refrigerator very well, so pesto is, I have found, a great way to keep and use fresh basil (minus the pine nuts, which are a later addition, and purely filler).

Hay Bondc: A nice post. I always keep some of this in the fridge and it just never occurred to me that maybe not everyone does. Now I think a lot of cooks out there may catch on. A good one.
