The pesto I made with basil I picked from my garden. I'm not saying you have to have a herb garden. I lived in the city for decades and I know about limited space. No place to plant a herb garden? You can grow herbs in pots, actually, and you can even put them on the window sill to do away with the limited space issue. But if herb gardening isn't your thing but you like pesto, keeping a jar of good quality pesto in the fridge is a good strategy too.
