Uncle Connie’s Pesto Sauce – Authentic Italian Recipes
My Uncle Costanzo ( Connie ) was a larger than life man. He was my godfather and a great uncle. I would spend part of my summer vacation with him and my godmother Aunt Emilia ( Emily). She would make pancakes from fresh blueberries and he would give me wine with water and espresso.
Uncle Connie was a trained chef and a maitre d’ at many of NY’s finest restaurants and clubs. I was too young to remember much of his cooking, Here’s one of his specialties.
