Go-To Pasta from Nick DiGiovanni

I find it hard to beat just a good homemade pasta with some sort of homemade pesto. That's always my go-to, and my favorite. It's so easy. It's so delicious. There's nothing like blending the pesto up in the blender and then taking off the lid and got all hot and steamy smell. It is one of the best smells I've ever found in the kitchen. And then if you want to be a little bit more challenging to yourself, there's always that Egg Yolk Ravioli you can make. It takes a little bit more time and precision. Try to fold in egg yolk into your pasta, and keep it whole where you get this amazing sauce from the egg yolk after you break it open.
