too well. I just made two sauces and boiled the pasta. I was skeptical about
how it will taste but when my guests kept on returning for more of this sauce I

Generally, Pesto Rosso is made with sun dried tomatoes but love your idea of using both sun dried and fresh ones. Love pesto with pasta and for salads. Will have to try this interesting one.
