Prosecco hooked me up with two varieties of her home grown balcony basil... chronic. Yesterday we made tomato buffalo mozzarella salad with basil. Delicious, but not enough basil. Tonight I decided to use it up before it wilted, so I made three kinds of bruschetta. Each toast was (perhaps too) lovingly rubbed with garlic.
1. Ricotta with tomato, basil and parmesan
2. Tomato, basil and parmesan
3. Pierre-Robert triple-crème, pesto (both varieties) and toasted pine nuts

Pea Shoot Pesto with Flank Steak
Another excellent recipe from the NYTimes – Pea shoot pesto. You can find the pea shoots, downstairs, at the back of the St. Lawrence Market.
The salad is a combination of baby arugula, pea shoots and cilantro. Instead of pork chops, we broiled a flank steak that had been marinating in lime juice, sesame oil and garlic. The steak was served thinly sliced, over the salad, topped with toasted pine nuts.
I don't know about you, but I'm getting hungry again.
