directions

  • In a large saucepan, bring 1 quart of water to a boil.
  • Add the salt and orzo and cook until the orzo is tender and has absorbed almost all of the cooking liquid, 8 to 9 minutes.
  • Stir in the butter, Parmesan cheese, basil and pine nuts.
  • Serve immediately.
  • * Note: To toast nuts, spread them on a baking sheet and place them in a 350-degree oven, shaking the pan occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes. Watch carefully because nuts will burn quickly.
