  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1                cup  pimiento-stuffed olives -- drained
     1/2           cup  raw walnuts -- chopped
     1/4           cup  olive oil -- 1/4" dice
     1/4           cup  Madeira
     1/4           cup  grated Parmesan cheese -- finely grated
     1/4           cup  fresh parsley -- firmly packed, chopped
  2             medium  garlic cloves -- chopped
                        freshly ground black pepper -- several grinds
  1 1/2         pounds  dried pasta -- linguine or lasagnette

Puree all ingredients except pasta in a food processor or blender until a 
thick, color-flecked paste is formed. Prepare this pesto well ahead of time, if 
possible, so the flavors have time to blend. Store covered in the refrigerator. 
When ready to eat, put several quarts of water on to boil and bring the pesto 
to room temperature. Cook pasta in boiling water until al dente. Toss the pesto 
with hot noodles in a warm bowl until well distributed. Pass more cheese and 
the pepper grinder, if you will.

"The sharp flavor of pimiento-stuffed olives is mellowed here by the other 
ingredients. In fact, most people will not guess the primary ingredient of this 
pesto, though they will eat it in large quantities."
