BASIL-MINT PESTO
From Bon Appetit The Best of the Year issue January 1996. The original recipe served this pesto with fresh fettuccine and grilled shrimp. Go ahead and use it with whatever you wish: pasta, fish, chicken, etc. Feel free to play around with the basil/mint ratio.

RICE NOODLES WITH THAI BASIL, MINT AND PEANUTS
Sort of a conglomeration of Asian cuisines. The original recipe has fresh cilantro only, but we liked both cilantro and Thai basil. From Bon Appetit April 1996. Rice noodles are available at Asian markets. I also like to throw in a fresh tomato or two (sliced or diced) to the mix.

Steps:
- In a non-reactive bowl, whisk the rice vinegar and sugar together. Add the onion rings and toss to coat. Let stand at least 30 minutes but up to 4 hours. Drain, reserving 2 tablespoons of the soaking liquid.
- In a large pot of boiling water, cook the rice noodles until al dente, about 2 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water. Drain well.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, oil and red pepper flakes (or fresh minced red jalapeno). Stir in the mint and Thai basil.
- Cut the cooked noodles into 3-4" long sections. Add a small amount of the noodles to a serving bowl and toss with the reserved vinegar/onion liquid. Add the remaining noodles, cucumber, fresh tomatoes, green onions and marinated onions.
- Drizzle the lime juice mixture over the rice noodles and toss gently. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish with the roasted peanuts.
