Pesto with Linguine Recipe

Pesto with Linguine recipe leaves you three ingredients away from an Italian classic brimming with big basil flavor. The addition of hot starchy pasta water completes this dish.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 (6.35-ounce) jar DeLallo Traditional Basil Simply Pesto® Sauce
• 1 (1-pound) package DeLallo Linguine
• 1 - 1 1/2 cups reserved hot pasta water
• Freshly grated DeLallo Imported Italian Granino Cheese Wedge (or Parmigiano-Reggiano)

DIRECTIONS

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain, reserving 1 1/2 cups of hot pasta water.
2. Return pasta to the pot. Stir in pesto. Continuing to stir, slowly add reserved pasta water until you get a desired consistency.
3. Serve immediately topped with grated Parmigiano.
