Ingredients

2 1/2 cups fresh basil
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons pine nuts
2 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
3 tablespoons Romano cheese
2 tablespoons softened butter
1 pounds linquini noodles

Directions:

Put basil, oil, pine nuts, garlic and salt into a blender of food processor. Process until smooth. Pour sauce into a small bowl. Add Parmesan cheese and Romano cheese. Mix to blend. Beat in the softened butter. If the sauce is too thick, add to it a tablespoon or more of the hot water that the pasta was cooked to taste and adjust for seasoning. Cook the pasta in a large pan of rapidly boiling salted water until it is al dente. Just before draining it, take about 4 tbsp of the cooking water and stir it into the sauce if needed. Drain the pasta and toss with the sauce. Serve immediately.
