Tips: Pesto can lose some of its basil aroma if heated over high heat for too long. Reduce the heat before adding it, then toss briefly.
Tips: Shrimp become firm when overcooked, so lower the heat as soon as they change color and turn opaque in the center.
Tips: Lightly toast the pine nuts in a dry pan over low heat for about 2 minutes, then let them cool to bring out their nutty aroma.
