BASIL PECAN PESTO
I prefer the taste of pecans over the pine nuts usually called for in pesto recipes. I developed this recipe over a summer of trial and error and prefer it to all other pesto recipes!

BASIL PECAN PESTO
My lovely cousin Carol sent me home from her house in Tampa with the most delicious pesto. We made it last as long as possible, and then I decided to make my own version of hers. I think I did a passable job! It is different, but still delicious! We love it on pizza with mushrooms and onions or pasta! I added a little lemon juice to keep the color bright. I also have been told that parsley does the same thing, so I added some of that too.

MASHAMA BAILEY'S PECAN PESTO
This recipe, from the chef Mashama Bailey of the Grey in Savannah, Ga., came to The Times in 2015. The pesto's roots are Italian, of course, but its flavor and texture nod first to the South, with pecans swapped in to the paste in place of more traditional pine nuts, and then to the wider world, with the inclusion of both Thai and opal basils to the mix. But use whatever basil you can find. Ms. Bailey's cooking is more about bending the rules than enforcing them.
