For 2 pounds of pasta, such as fettuccine
2 bunches, about 2 cups, fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup tarragon leaves stripped from stems, about 5 - 6 sprigs
4 small cloves of garlic, popped from skins

1/4 pound, about 1 cup, grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, a couple
handfuls
The zest of 2 lemons
2 splashes of water, about 2 tablespoons
1/2 cup EVOO - extra virgin olive oil, eyeball it
Coarse salt and fresh black pepper, to your taste
Place the basil, tarragon, garlic, pine nuts, cheese and lemon juice in
processor and pulse grind to a fine chop. Add a couple splashes of water
and turn processor on. Stream the EVOO into the processor to form a
thick sauce. Season sauce with salt and pepper to taste and scrape into
