Pesto alla Trapanese is super easy to make. It's a no-cook pasta sauce, only using a few simple ingredients. It's a great alternative to classic basil pesto.
Homemade pesto lasts in the fridge for up to a week if stored in an airtight container. Pour a thin layer of olive oil over the pesto before closing the container. This preserves freshness and prevents oxidation.
Trapanese pesto is traditionally served with Busiate pasta. Alternatively you could use Fusilli or Penne pasta.
