Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb linguine (or spaghetti or other long pasta)
salt , to taste
fresh ground pepper , to taste
1 cup walnut halves (or pecan halves)
1/2 cup loosely-packed fresh parsley (or basil leaves)
1 garlic clove, peeled
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

Directions:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it. Meanwhile, combine the nuts, parsley and garlic in a small food processor (or use a mortar and pestle) and turn the machine on. With the machine running, add the oil gradually, using just enough so that the mixture forms a creamy paste. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Cook the pasta, stirring occasionally, until it is tender but not mushy. When it is ready, drain it-reserve some of the cooking water-and toss with the sauce; if the mixture appears too thick, thin with a little of the pasta-cooking water or more olive oil.
Serve!
