2 tblsp butter
seasoning to taste
2 1/2 tblsp butter or oil
1/2 cup basil (fresh if possible)
1/3 cup cheese (parmesean or romano)
2 cloves garlic
2-3 sliced roma tomatoes
1/4 cup white wine
1/2 cup sliced onion
1 can minced clams (or shrimp)
Remember: This is Italian food. You can be liberal with the
ingredients.
Take baguette of herbed bread. Slice into approx 1" thick pieces.
Cover BOTH surfaces with butter (seasoned is best -- we use basil,
oregano, garlic and pepper). Place slices on a baking pan.
In a small saucepan, combine wine, oil/butter, garlic (and clams) and
simmer for five minutes. Add basil (and parmesan or romano cheese) and
heat for about a minute and then remove from heat. Let stand until
thick.
Spoon pesto over the bread (don't waste any :) ) Put sliced tomatoes on
top and cover with slice of mozzarella.
Place baking pan in the oven and broil until the cheese starts to brown.
