Ingredients:
10 cups of water
Salt

Procedure:
Empty bag of SamMills Pasta d'oro into a pot.










Add about 10 cups of water, covering the pasta.











Bring the pasta to a boil, adding a pinch of salt in the process.










Occasionally stir.











Cook until soft. (approx 10-15 min, or however long it takes) I added a sprinkle of dried parsley leaves into the pot.










Drain the water, and put it back into the pot.








For the Pesto
Ingredients:
1 stick of butter
1 tablespoon of Olive Oil 














Procedure:
At low heat, melt the stick of butter.











Add the Mayacamas Pesto Pasta Sauce Mix, and blend thoroughly.










Add the Olive Oil, and blend again.











Let it stand for 3-5 minutes, and take off heat.
Pour it over the pasta and mix it in well.











Add some fresh basil on top, and you've got yourself a fine dish!

















Voila!
