Pesto is delicious just on a slice of bread, but you can also use it in many recipes. The Worldcook website has a page on recipes with pesto to inspire you.

Try also red pesto with tomatoes and Sicilian pesto with anchovies.

Cut the peppers small and mix with the salt. Grind very fine in a food processor, or for an even better result, in a mortar. Put in a glass jar. You can keep the sambal in the fridge for 2 months.
