Side Dish Sauces and Condiments Sauces Pasta Sauces 15-Year-Old Pesto Sauce 4.5 (52) 43 Reviews 9 Photos I first tried pesto in a restaurant about 15 years ago and asked the chef what was in it. I love keeping my own jar of this on hand as it yields enough for a pound of pasta and is wonderful drizzled over tomatoes, boiled potatoes, or Italian bread.
