INSTRUCTIONS
Bring the water to a boil, add the salt, and add the spaghetti. Cook according to package directions, under cooking by 1 minute. Drain the cooked pasta (reserving a cup of the water) but do not rinse. Put 1/2 cup of the reserved cooking water into a sauce pan and add the pasta. Cook the pasta over low heat for 30 seconds, add the olive oil and pesto, stir well to fully coat the pasta and cook 30 seconds more. Turn off the heat and put the pasta into a serving bowl, add a tablespoon or two of reserved water if the pasta seems too dry. Sprinkle with pine nuts and serve with freshly-grated cheese and ground black pepper. This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
