Kitchen Tools:

To start, boil the linguine according to the package instructions in a large pot. Meanwhile, in a blender, combine the fresh basil leaves, pine nuts, parmesan cheese, garlic cloves, and olive oil. Blend until smooth to create the pesto sauce.

Once the linguine is cooked, drain it in a colander and return it to the pot. Add the pesto sauce and toss the pasta until it is well coated. Transfer the pasta to a serving dish.

Next, slice the black olives and cherry tomatoes in half. Arrange the olive halves in a circular pattern on top of the pasta to create a spiderweb effect. Place the cherry tomato halves in the center of the spiderweb to represent the body of the spider.

Finally, tear the mozzarella balls into small pieces and scatter them around the dish to mimic spider eggs. Serve the Creepy Crawly Spiderweb Pesto Pasta to your guests and watch as they marvel at both the presentation and taste of this festive dish.

This dish weighs approximately 1000g and serves 4 people. Each serving is around 250g with an estimated calorie count of 500 per serving.

One unique tip to enhance this dish is to sprinkle some black sesame seeds on top of the pasta before serving. This will add an extra touch of spookiness to the spiderweb design.
