Presto Pesto

The Kinfolk publication is no longer a secret gem. But what maybe be still it's best kept secret is how gorgeous all the videos they do for it as well. Talk about food porn! Now, you may know I have been on a bit of a detox diet of late (and have successfully already lost about 3 pounds! Yey!). And as such have been staying away from white starches and such. But this viedo by the people at Kinfolk on the Art of Pesto is just to good to not share. It might jsut be the first thing I try when I start eating normal again!

Enjoy and happy weekend!

Our recipe video of classic pesto for Kinfolk Magazine (www.kinfolkmag.com), a quarterly publication based in Portland, OR. We are a growing community of artists, writers, designers, photographers, cooks and others who are interested in creating small gatherings and finding new things to cook, make, and do. The recipe is inspired by 101 Cookbooks (http://www.101cookbooks.com), an online cookbook collection led by Heidi Swanson (http://www.heidiswanson.com) interested in natural, whole foods and ingredients. The original article, "How to Make Pesto like an Italian Grandmother Recipe," can be found here: http://kinfo.lk/16g7aG1 "If you've ever tasted pesto in Italy you know that the pesto here in the United States just isn't the same. I received a lesson in how to make pesto from a real Italian grandmother last week and now I understand the difference and what makes it so." —Heidi Swanson — The film is produced by Matt and Julie Walker of Tiger in a Jar (http://www.tigerinajar.com), a film production company based in Salt Lake City, UT. The music is copyright-protected by Helios, the moniker of musician Keith Kenniff (http://www.unseen-music.com) based in Portland, OR. The song is titled "Fourteen Drawings".
